    Setting myself Up

    Brandi,
    I have this notebook
    And this lighter.
    I'm setting myself up to fail
    All in the hopes of bringing myself higher.
    I know what is asked of me
    And what stands in my way.
    I know what I see
    And I know what is okay.
    I know
    How to play the game
    And I know it very well.
    I know what I have to do
    But I'm so afraid
    I'm setting myself up to fail.

    ") Thanks Babe

    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.
