Proud
I am proud of myself,
for who I am today,
I taught myself to sing, and dance,
and how to be nice.
I am proud of myself,
for the acomplishments I have made,
I have sacaraficed things for others,
and I have helped the elderly.
I am proud of myself,
because I know how to act,
and how to be gentle, and kind.
I am proud of myself,
I have a kindness in my heart,
that nobody can denie.
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.
