    Rules of the Waiting Game
    I'm willing to stop
    I willing to wait
    As long as love lives
    And away goes the hate
    I'll struggle through the fight
    Stay awake through the night
    I'll wait for the light
    Until it shines bright.

    Give without taking
    Create without making
    Sleep without waking
    Be cold without shaking
    Crumble without breaking
    Act without faking
    Hurt without aching
    Love without hating

    Not blind, but you see.
    Not afraid, but you flee.
    Not an ocean, but a sea.
    I'm a slave, set me free.

    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.
