You the Firefly...
I stood in the wind
and tried to capture it.
But when I saw the butterfly
flying flat and low-
I let the wind go, I let it go.

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.
