Gregory Corso

Humanity

What simple profundities
What profound simplicities
To sit down among the trees
and breathe with them
in murmur brool and breeze—
 
And how can I trust them
who pollute the sky
with heavens
the below with hells
 
Well, humankind,
I’m part of you
and so my son
 
but neither of us
will believe
your big sad lie
