the elfin king
the light did break
the ties that bound
the elfin king of lore
the gifted sage
the mighty mage
the champion of war
he lay long bound
beneath the ground
til love would break his chains
to heal his heart
and mend his sword
and bring the gentle rains
he fought no more
nor stood his ground
against the darkened sky
and when the battle cry
did wane
he batted not his eye
for to be a king
and love his land
and save his lady wife
on bended knee
and battered face
he offered up his life

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.
