    Hell Within


    It is anger, fear, anxiety and ego,
    That keeps us from becoming all we can be.
    Keeps us from moving to the light,
    And away from the darkness.

    We live a life of anger to hide the fear.
    We live a life of fear to hide anxiety.
    We hide anxiety in a life of darkness.
    We hide the darkness with ego.

    It feeds on it's own circle;
    Condemning us to a life,
    Of suffering, fear and anxiety,
    That is hell within.

    dh Chisman

    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.
