SICK
Tell me why,
does beauty die.
While the corrupt grow strong
And evil thrives?
Is it just my state of mind?
Or is the universe sick inside?
Is there any sense at all
Why towers rise while forests fall?
And why my son, should he call
Should find his dad’s not there at all.
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.
