    Blind

    I don't believe what the mirror says,
    What the window sees,
    What the door handle feels.

    I can not see what does not exist.
    And I cannot breathe what does not roam
    In the atmostphere.

    I don't see the purpose in joy and pain,
    In love and death - their worthlessness
    The heart is only an empty hole
    The soul is a detached shadow

    When I dream the dreams
    I'm cursed to remember,
    It's my cup of world spilling
    Into hopeless space.

    Yet even if I dig deep to my lowest point,
    I still won't hear what my mirror says,
    Or even believe what my window sees.

    You are a seeker. Excellent form.

    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.
