    The Me I Don’t Wanna Be


    An introduction
    A glance, a smile
    A drink, maybe two
    Stay for awhile

    Eight-ball falling
    Deep corner pocket
    Pass the big stick
    Cue up and chalk it

    Outside the window
    Demons cry in pain
    Are you afraid of the Devil?
    No, my God keeps me sane.

    Mr. Throttle man
    Sir Navigation
    Salt and Wind
    Wave sensation

    Smooth talk
    Lying eyes
    Knowing hands
    Trembling thighs

    Skin and sweat
    Deep hard sex
    Behind me...you
    And slippery flesh

    Snow at your fingertips
    Me...at your feet
    Four-story lover
    Dream without sleep

    Glass wall reflections
    To gain a better view
    Of sins to be forgiven
    And to teach me something new

    President Grant and his twin
    Thanked me for my grace
    A wake-up call come early
    As the tear falls down my face.

    Very soft changes in the events and the brief and expressive words have caused your poem to be an impressive one.

    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.
