A Cigarrete

Poem Commentary

Smoking one night, I thought of all my cig would like to say, so I wrote it down.

A Cigarrete

A Cigarrete: Drew Lancaster

Its burn in me persued

One drag all I had

Stinging waste sets my plate

While my empty eyes stay glued


Damn that stick of ghost

Breath them in

Spit them out

Disgust of air so others choke


It gives me a thing unseen

Reflection on perception

Converse of suggestion

Doctors thank a blessing


Yet I shall have one more

May though it waste

Depending depth of thought

Pending the time and place


As a child I was told

Don't play with fire

Though now I must

Light my minds desire

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.
