Literature Project #45 Allen Ginsberg 'An Eastern Ballard'

45 days into my year long daily Literature project. Yesterday's Harvest Moon and here is a poem by Allen Ginsberg:

An Eastern Ballad

I speak of love that comes to mind:
The moon is faithful, although blind;
She moves in thought she cannot speak.
Perfect care has made her bleak.

I never dreamed the sea so deep,
The earth so dark; so long my sleep,
I have become another child.
I wake to see the world go wild.
Wonderful Andrew!
