    Poem Commentary

    This was written at a  time when I wasn't myself. It was still me who wrote it so it doesn't change how I feel about reading it today.

    A Slit

     A cut...
    The blood...
    You don't know what this does.
    To hide the emotional pain...
    I slit my vein!
    People look at me different when they see the scars...
    The emotional pain to carry is ours.
    We make a decision...
    Everytime we make an incision.
    There is too much to bear...
    But it's not like anyone out there cares.

    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.
