    closed for inventory

    Wasted far beyond the annals i can write,
    I'm here, a sulking bat, full of love's misery,
    On the verge, of saying "goodbye" to that lonely crag,
    I come, for the first time, closed for inventory.

    What's with the me in me? I ask again, don't complain,
    Bother me now please, with some unending refrains,
    I need to know, why love always says sorry to me,
    I'm opening up, so I'm closed for inventory.

    I did shut the door for words that could have inspired,
    But that was then, forgive me, I just fired Mr. Pride,
    I would listen to anything, please don't let me be,
    I am here, a listener, closed for inventory.

    I gave up a new found love, It is me who is at fault,
    My heart, I didn't guard, now my lover I can't hold,
    An old flame spoke, and from her I couldn't set free,
    So I am here the doubting Thomas, closed for inventory.

    Closed for inventory, tell me what's with the me in me,
    No one ever wanted, to be chained by hearts' enmity,
    Am I too bad at loving? Am I not suited for love's ecstasy?
    Am I holding on to love, the way we ought should be?


    Closed for inventory...

    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.
