How Could He Leave? (pantoum)
That night I cried for him
My tears refused to cease
Shredding pain from within
How could he abandon me?
My tears refused to cease
Boiling hot and stinging
How could he abandon me?
My sobbing turned to screaming
Boiling hot and stinging
My heart ready to explode
My sobbing turned to screaming
As he drove off down the road
My heart ready to explode
Shredding pain from within
He drove off down the road
That was the night I cried for him.

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.
