    COLD

     Darkness surrounds me
    As I jam myself under the footbridge

    I will try to sleep
    But already am so cold

    wedged in behind the weeds
    Maybe I will be safe tonight

    The cold seeps into my bones
    My body shivers

    voices over head has me
    Holding y breath

    They pass on
    unaware I am here

    The trembling is getting worse
    I tug my jacket closer

    The reaper roams tonight
    His touch is creeping closer

    Survival is all that matters
    What is lost quickly forgotten

    Danger surrounds every breath
    Death just beyond sight

    He will take his share tonight
    More tomorrow

    This life filled with danger
    And humiliation

    Such strong and empowering emotion content. Nice wolfnomad.

    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.
