    A Poor Man's Dance

    Every life is a different story,
    Every day is another chance,
    Every fight isn't fought for glory,
    Every experience is a step in this dance,
    There's a road on the left,
    There's a road on the right,
    Point to your path and face your fight,
    There's tough times comin' after the spin
    Change step once and wait for your win
    Bending low, to avoid hot air,
    Cotton Silk spirals 'round, there's nothing to share,
    The green is all gone,
    the steps are still the same,
    Clumsy feet lead to a life of shame,
    Spinning 'round this world, dropping down,
    This poor man's steps just ran out

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
