    Poem Commentary

    Damn you for being my inescapable darkness.

    From a Look

     Damn you for the thoughts, for the voice inside my head,
    For the demon on my shoulder chaining angels to the bed,
    Your eyes are sin incarnate, bringing life to what was dead,
    And your glances in the passing saying words still left unsaid.

    Darkness so alluring, calling saints forth from the grave,
    Offering a solemn tiding, satisfying all I crave.
    Drowning deep in indecision from the silence that you gave,
    Unknowingly you beckon me to be temptation's slave.

    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.
