I Said it All
You know the air is best after the squall
I suffocate in void - I said it all
Of course I’m gonna soar after the fall
But yet I’m six foot deep - I said it all
I ain’t no shy when setting you a call
I’m comfortably numb - I said it all
Inanity inside - I’m like a ball
Deflated punctured rag - I said it all
You know the truth and now there’s no distressing
We’re getting closer day by day
But if I knew the anguish of the blessing
I’d better throw my tongue away
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.
