    Take My Life
    Take my life and mold it
    Into what you would desire.
    Remove the trash that's in my life
    And burn it in your fire.
    Take the rough, sharp edges
    And sand them 'til they're smooth.
    Cut out all the impurities
    Of which, you disapprove.
    Take my pride and trample it
    And toss it all around.
    Grind it into dust, Lord,
    And throw it on the ground.
    Take my need to be in charge
    Away, and let me see
    That when I let YOU take control'
    It's easier for me.
    Take away my selfishness
    Let me learn to share
    Whatever You desire, Lord
    To show othersthat I care.
    Remove from me the sinful things
    That I might say or do.
    Help me to be the person who
    Would be a joy to you.
    So take my life and mold it
    So the whole world will see
    That special kind of person
    That you want me to be.

    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.
