    Poem Commentary

    Rubies are nice but I like garnet better.

    Garnet

     She's a princess
    Deep ruddy complexion
    Aglow not with fire
    Not like an ember
    But like the ocean

    She's a castaway
    A gypsy
    Snow White
    Banished by the queen

    She will always
    Be a princess
    Though her depth
    Plummets to infinity
    She is not to rule

    She has a name
    But it's not as lovely
    As she is
    She deserves better
    But she steps aside

    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.
