seven ways to look at a book
1 there may be only words
but together it makes
something special.
2 a book may be a story
but yet it can be
your LIFE.
3 in a book it teaches you
things you may never
have learned
4 she opened the book
and went into a world
she would never have imagined.
5 if the library is opened
it is a world waiting to be
discovered
6 in life's book the
answers aren't found
in the back
7 a book is transparent
its is easy to see
open your eyes
and see what you find.

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.
