    The Land of the Brave

    .
    The Land of the Brave
    .
    I remember when I visited this odd island
    Met someone who wanted to live by his hand
    .
    All he wanted, his chance to be independant
    Refused the old ways from which he descendant
    .
    Had a desire but they didn't need a dentist
    No teacher here, could not be an apprenticed
    .
    Sat under a tree, like Siddartha transcendent
    And realized he had just become co-dependant
    .
    Locals where different, goal was to be a slave
    Never be independant until you are in your grave
    .
    In the island of misfits, the free, and the brave
    .

    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.
