    Sight

    Beautiful view

    Displayed for the blind eyes of the world

     

     

    Those blind eyes never see what is real

     

     

    Eyes that will never make it past the skin

    Eyes that rip apart the heart of beauty

    Eyes that don’t deserve to gaze

    Eyes that take what isn’t theirs

    Eyes that break every rule

     

     

    Those blind eyes never see what is real

     

     

    They are empty windows

         To empty heads

    They are liars

         To those who need the truth

    They are thieves

         Stealing from the poor

       To feed their terrible notions.

    They are cowards

         Hiding from the scenes that they create

       Hiding away hoping to disappear.

     

     

    Those blind eyes never see what is real

     

     

    To see you need to close your eyes

    Let your heart be your guide

    Listen to what they have to say

    Tuck your biases away

    Then,

    With eyes closed you will see

    The depths of inner beauty.

     

     

    Those blind eyes never see what is real

    I really enjoyed this poem. The last stanza really makes the entire poem work. Nicely done.

    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.
