    Solitary
    He sits alone in silence
    As quite often now he did;
    Keeping all emotion
    Very well hid.

    And though you may assume
    That as he sits alone in this room quite withdrawn
    He himself know the truth
    He is not here; he's long been gone.

    END

    This has a certain quality of an end that knows not that it is done. Truly a nice piece.........................................gogant

    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.
