Intangible Responses
Intangible is that part of Every Man
Convincing him He could pluck every flower
Inconceivable! I would have said,
It is the root of arrogance!
Now I find, If I am honest,
Much the same am I
For a whirlwind blew into my life
So that I have just spent a fortnight
Rejecting one in favor of the other
Due simply to My conceptions and desires;
The mitigating factor in my confusion
Is that my feelings were initiated by
Responses to my mind...

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.
