    CHOSEN: DREW LANCASTER


    Never arose to a home

    Only designated choices

    Never woke to a friend

    Only perpetual static in voices


    The stairs creek awfully hollow

    Ghostly feet making noises

    Met them at the top to stop

    Giving each single roses


    Father, Mother, who dare read this

    Stay glued you best keep frozen

    I'm headed down to a place called home

    One finally of my own......CHOSEN

    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.
