    THE STAIRWAY
    I find myself standing
    in the middle of a stairway
    spiraling ever so perfectly
    I can go either way

    As I look downward I face an abyss
    but looking upward I'm drawn to the mist
    I stop for a moment to ponder
    then start climbing the spiral again

    The more I climb
    the more the stairs wind
    up to heaven's gates
    where my destiny awaits

    Some steps are missing
    others cracked and worn
    but at the end of this stairway
    I'll get my reward

    So as I keep climbing
    each step make with love
    eventually I'll get there
    to heaven up above

    Thank you so much

    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.
