    Shoe Court
    You turn your glare
    upon me,
    I am cross-examined...
    I look down,
    to escape your tone...

    I study my shoes..
    the miles they've gone,
    a hole in my soul...

    the tear drops,
    upon my toe..

    It's journey
    from eye to shoe,
    a split second
    representing years..

    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.
