    the virgin i am

    i am glad to say it,
    over the top of the world i say it,
    to the hearing of all people i say it,
    even at the mockery of my class mates i shout it,
    the virgin i am.

    the world spins and stops i say it,
    i am told its disgraceful i shout it,
    in a place old fashioned i am seen i say it,
    to the hearing of them rapers i shout it,
    the virgin i am.

    i say it,
    i shout it,
    my pride bears my fears,
    for the virgin i am,
    drags them near.

    IN MEMORY OF ALL THE VIRGINS WHO HAVE BEEN RAPED FOR THEIR PRICELESS JEWEL .

    wow, courageous, lol expressing yourself, that's good, let it out and shout, so the whole world can hear.

    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.
