MY LIFE
Life,they say is a bed of roses,
But amongst the roses are thorns,
You have no more than two choices,
Pick one or both but not none.
My life, I built among roses,
My destiny, I built around thorns,
Having few options to choose from,
But taking chances and opportunities if they come.
The cards dealt to me by the Hands of fate,
If I had my way I will refuse but it seems too late.
Confused?! Oh! let me say I'm sorry,
To make you understand,I'll tell you my life's story.
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.
