    days

    faces change twice, daily.

    existing within this forgiveness,

    we count the minutes and
    the passing winters-

    years of love and worms
    destroy the skin and

    ravage the structure within.

    nights, days and in the middle-

    white clouds clean their teeth
    against the passing airplanes.

    face changes, daily.

    nights the rain comments on
    contemporary worries-

    wordless hurt evokes nostalgia
    and we slide on from one
    relationship into another

    never knowing why.

     days change faces.

    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.
