    To all those that forgot you need to talk to be heard, sorta.

    An Ode to Those

     Scary.....at first but then it started.

    The room was full, no room to breath but yet not a sound.

    The tension was broken, by nature naturally, when it farted.

    Not a person mind you, just a machine, when it hit the ground.

    Sad the only sound in the room was mechanical,

    Then agin, I saw what you wrote....... maybe its better.

    Friends, are they the ones you never see? Kinda like me?

    Or the ones you talk to, with a letter, that make it better?

    Can you see me, can they see you, wonder how it sounds?

    As for that old machine, it continues to ground. At least it has a sound!

    But it'll be better, even a letter says something, without a voice, but not by choice.

    So save the words I know you have and use them but don't be sad.

    For me, nothing you say will ever be bad.

    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.
