delusion
a foolish desire
the senses misfire
and lie that you could be
my ultimate mate
I'm spiraling downwards
a whirlwind of powers
that get me to thinking
you must be so great
delusion is only
a blink away from me
and stands on the threshold
of sealing my fate
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.
