    When The Fruit Has Ripened

     The bough breaks
    When the fruit
    Has ripened.

    Maybe it's just
    A premonition
    Sanctioned
    By promises.

    Plants wither
    And bear themselves
    The fruit of eternity
    Embalmed
    In a mortal frame.

    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.
