    Dream Man

    I sit in class, I walk the halls, and I lay in bed at night thinking...
    Pictures flood my mind of romance
    Between me and a boy
    But this boy is not you
    He has no face, but I know him
    I put your face where his should be
    But it does not fit
    I put the other boys, sadly not the right skin color
    I try the others, but it does not fit either
    The boy, nay, the man in my mind stares deep into my eyes
    Gently, he kisses
    Compared to yours, his kiss is a gentle caress
    Hunger and passion so intense that one kiss does not satisfy
    I have experienced that once before
    But this man is too tall to be that boy
    His muscles are too big to belong to that boy
    The man whispers my name in my ear
    The voice is so unfamiliar
    I realize, he has no voice!
    But I know what he says
    Husky, quiet, breathless
    Like the wind in itself
    His face is at the front of my mind
    But I am unable to pick him out amongst the others
    He shall remain faceless
    He shall remain voiceless
    He shall remain in my mind
    He shall remain my Dream Man

    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.
