All

I once had all
I have not now
Too much was said
Not enough somehow
I knew it all
Ignorance peaked
Generous heart
A selfish core
Opportunities knocked
No open door
I walked alone
With many friends
Reluctance shown
Making amends
I cant remember
But I do recall
I had not wisdom
I now have all

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.
