    Poem Commentary

    my concept of a babies possible thoughts.

    I Am

    I am the essence
      of smallness and helplessness
         and my world is peopled by shadows.
    I see them and I know they are there.
    They touch me and I know I am there.
    The world is all brand new,
    And there is awe is every sensation.
    There is joy in every experience:
            being held,
              being talked to,
                being played with.
    I see wonder in loving eyes,
      and joy in loving faces.
    I feel tenderness in every touch.

    Yes, I think I am going to like it here.

    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.
