I Am My Own

  • Well, here goes nothing. Really. I'm not doing anything.

I Am My Own

You ask a question, I object, you explain to your effect.
So I'm convinced that you are right, and agree to your delight.
I hate the fact that this I do, I wish I could say no to you!
I can't object; I seek to please, but this comes with no good ease.
I change my answers, just a tad, just so I won't make you mad.
I wish to stop my foolish ways, but now my life's a tangled maze.
For now you'll know the seed I've sown; from here on out, I am my own.

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.
