Bad Back
Like a metal roddriven up my spine
bending hurts
feels out of line
I grit my teeth
as I walk or climb
pain will subside
with meds and time
Bad Back

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.
