    Poem Commentary

    Time is not a variable or factor.

    He's Mine
    He reminded me of the beauty
    How can I take his leave?
    a married man
    yet constant flirt
    I can only stand idle
    while he does all the work
    and now
    he expects no memories
    a snap of his fingers
    and I'm gone
    wanting him to remember me
    Is it so wrong?
    when it is I, who
    should be remembering you
    instead.


    1989

    Knew a man like this once. Hmm lesson learned at such a young age is they'll stray with her they'll stray with you. Great poem.

    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.
