    Choking on nothing

     Looking for words,
    choking on nothing.
    I need an excuse--
    need to say SOMETHING..
    I could say I tried
    It's partially true
    But my biggest fault 
    is stretching the truth
    After all, 
    Who am I fooling?
    With a knife in my back
    the blood is pooling
    But I pull it out
    And use it again
    A double-edged blade--
    Foe or friend?

    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.
