I am But a Person

Poem Commentary

Shows pessimism, how the world isn't like a candy covered with chocolate and the likes.

I am But a Person


I am far from perfect,

Do not expect,

That I be correct,

I am no suspect,

To be given a verdict,

I am but a person.


The world is not what we think it is.

Unfair is reality.

It is brutality,

It is fatality,

It causes infidelity,

It causes finality. 


I do not know all,

I am at the aul,

Where to go?

What to do?

I am not perfect,

 I am but a person.


I do not own you,

Everything I did didn't matter to you,

I thought my dreams were true,

I wish I knew......

I wish I knew.....


It must've been destiny,

That you got the best of me,

It messed with me,

Now I am worry-free.

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.
