    Poem Commentary

    In life we want and long for so much.  We are tempted to do things to get what we want.  Don't spend time worrying over the things you don't have  but appreciate and be stewards over the things you do have.  Wanting things are not bad but it's the negative things we do that makes us lust for more.  Trust in God and he will direct your path. Seek Him first(The Need) and He will add these things unto you(The Wants).

    I Want.......

    I want to scream.  I want to be mean.  I want the world to feel my pain.  I want the rich to have my loss and I have their gain.  I want to fly into the sunset and land on an open shore.  I want to have endless options without any shut doors.  I want to have security, my money never running out.  I want to live without worries or doubts.  I want to live happily ever after like a princess.  I want to live life without running into tests. 
    You want a man
    You need a hand
    You want a dollar
    You need a father
    You want to fit in
    You need self-discipline
    My wants are not what I need.  Like me, the rich and powerful also bleeds.  If I got everything I want in the blink of an eye...How could I learn how to survive?  Needs are the things that helps you to grow.  Wants are lusts and desires that keeps you wanting more.

    Real nicely said. I like the feeling in this poem. You share so much of yourself in just a few lines. I also want good things, but as long as I know who my maker is, and where I will spend eternity, I guess you can say, that's all I really need.

    amen to that sista. I feel all of this is your words. to many people have atleast once in their lives worship that which in time will fad. There's an old saying the riches of this will parish, but salvation is eternal. great piece. on to the next.

    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.
