    The One

     One could decide to count the days as lost,
    as times to be regretted, best forgot,
    best relegated down to vaults to rot--
    but I will not.

    For You were with me in those vague hours,
    throwing myself down from tall towers,
    heedless of a Truth behind the power--
    a Love unsoured.

    A Love in the shape of a man, no less,
    covered in blood, but in Love He is dressed.
    literally dying to hear me say, "Yes--
    You've loved me best."

    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.
