Intimacy
Eating off your plate
After you have left the house
Warm floor where you sat
An attempt to be absorbed
Defiant, determined to break the fear
A smile to make me happy
Intimacy
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.
