Allen Ginsberg
“As Is
you’re bearing
 
a common
Truth
 
Commonly known
as desire
 
No need
to dress
 
it up
as beauty
 
No need
to distort
 
what’s not
standard
 
to be
understandable.
 
Pick your
nose
 
eyes ears
tongue
 
sex and
brain
 
to show
the populace
 
Take your
chances
 
on
your accuracy
 
Listen to
yourself
 
talk to
yourself
 
and others
will also
 
gladly
relieved
 
of the burden—
their own
 
thought
and grief.
 
What began
as desire
 
will end
wiser”
