    Test of Eloquence

     Substances now wasted
    Reminder of what we've tasted-
    There's too much humor
    in these waters.

    A private art of alchemy
    a stench of creativity-
    There's so much relief
    in these muddy waters.

    A humane calculation
    of sewage and salvation-
    Time is of the essence
    I must make it to the water.

    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.
