    TO BE A MAN

    TO be a man is far from the lips
    Every situation that comes,
    Each experience that I learn
    Every circumstance that falls
    All turns into a malady
    The gift of wisdom
    The challenge of knowledge
    The misery of understanding
    Could only be clear by anointing
    When I look at everything around me
    I realize each has a question or two
    Or I could get a wife, so as to obtain favour
    But every lady concern is still comfort
    To be a man is really far from the lips
    For me, I’ve been a boy since my birth.
    Only if I could close my eyes,
    And everything appears bright forever.
    Maybe then, a lasting smile would emerge.

    from the heart flows words through the mouth that speaks those words and if not mention go unheard, just become thoughts that turns into blurbs.

    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.
