    ALONNESS

    As we grow older
    we trade our youth for wisdom.
    In the thick mist of Solitude
    Soliloquy finds its speech.
    Hamlet, Shakespare's friend,
    knew it all!
    The youthful zest is lost.
    Abundance of time prevail,
    Thoughs of unaccomplished dreams
    One knows!
    An aching emptiness is born.
    Only in time like these,
    when one is alone.
    Then one knows self
    Indeed ourselves, better!

    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.
