    //breath//

     When I whispered life 
    into paralysed old man’s ear

    the patients 
    in the hospital ward
    struggling to thrive  out pain
    inhaled the word,

    the old man’s body shook for a while
    and
    became motionless as before.

    I returned to dawn

    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.
