    A Few Words Off the Top of My Head

    Sometimes I act kinda strange and bizarre... I know.
    Intentions are good but I'm fuckin intense and it shows
    Sentences ending mid-flow -
    Resting dead stop when you thought I would go
    Unpredictable like Florida snow...?...
    You don't know me from Joe and the feelings are usually mutual
    Demanding my space, maintaining my distance is ritual
    Flighty individual
    offender habitual
    Guilty as charged
    Assure you my head will never be large
    Unlike SOME folks I am sure everyone knows
    No shortage of those...
    I get so SICK to my heart of the shit,
    the hypocritical pieces and bits
    My reaction was never a fit or slit wrist
    Bubbling silent in space where I sit
    Using distraction until delayed reaction
    inevitably WILL hit
    I laugh at the top of my lungs at my own private joke
    At the tip of my tongue are words I should've spoke
    Shoulda coulda woulda....
    Instead of wasting my breath,
    fill my lungs with sweet kind smoke
    Crazy times I can't revoke
    Would NOT revoke
    All the low blows jabs and pokes
    well worth the depth of thought provoked
    inside my soul,
    unrefined,
    wild, not always invited or kind
    invoking this savage fire of mine
    Blowing minds
    ...including mine
    Exploding like a buried land mine
    And muscles tense, hands shake, teeth grind
    All I can do is just watch it unwind
    I cannot rewind, no apology
    If you don't follow me
    Sorry about your luck
    Keep my karma clean
    Try to do what I think's the right thing
    not paying much mind to how others take me
    Either love me or hate me
    no in-betweens
    Mistake me debate me
    Underestimate me.
    ...You'll soon see...
    or maybe you NEVER will
    FOREVER ill
    Hold my own... try to chill
    between misery and victory
    and victory and misery.

    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.
