LOCKED-OUT

LOCKED-OUT

The effects of a collective born ot of lockout.  The residual waste;

Not the just the darkside but the darkest, the deepest, the unkownest;

We don't get the point until it is plunged into us in the form of a sharp instrument; 

We don't bite the bullet until we are shot.  We want to know what's on the mind of man but our protection lies in what we know even what we don't know;

So do you really want to know or are we satisfied witht the illusion of light and happy in the darkest, deepest reality of hell's waiting room, pergurtory?

I like this poem alot. I am often conflicted with the decision if id rather know what I dont know, or if I am satisfied with the illusion of it all. I love the last stanza it is the true way to put such a question.

Yeah you right. We're stubborn. The more we think we're grown, the more life reminds us that we are just children. A poem that, to me, seems to show the difference between "wisdom" and "intelligence." Now we just got to figure out how to balance it out...

preciate the comment!

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.
