    Love and Allah

    How did things reach so far to the bottom?
    Words of hatred living on the tips of our tongues as if they belonged there.
    When I said I loved you,
    That was never a lie
    My only fabrication was in believing you when you said you loved me back
    You used your body to create warfare on mine
    And even now all that I can sit and wonder, is why?
    What about my love warrants being humiliated, disrespected, and... dehumanized just because you felt like it?
    In my eyes you were flawless
    The most beautiful thing I had ever seen
    Dark chocolate skin
    Smooth like melon drew me in
    And from captivation alone,
    I was yours
    Prepared in every way to love you, to make a home for you
    So much so, that I was unwilling to provide that for anyone else
    That was the essence and beauty of my love
    Now you should ask yourself, what can extinguish the fire of my rage?
    That I don't beat the hell out of you just because it was a thought
    Make out of you the remains of yesterday
    Allah is gracious, and not even he would hold me accountable for the fury that wages within me
    He saw what you did
    How you so blatantly mistreated me
    And no vengeance is greater than knowing that your selfish, heartless, actions are recorded in his book
    And in the final hour
    You shall be judged for your transgressions

    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.
