Rebirth
What you want, you don’t get
A depression is draggin’ you down
Pulls you into an endless gorge, into a burning house
Burns you up and spits you back out
Then you crawl, then you walk
Then you dream, then you thought
“Pull me back down,
Pull me back down,
Spit me back out
To be born again”
To the beat of the drum, I move along
To the eyes of the beast I sing her a song
To have great poets there must be great audiences too.
Walt Whitman, American Poet (1819-1892)
