Allen Ginsberg - Haiku (Never Published)Allen Ginsberg - Haiku (Never Published)
Work rating: Medium


Drinking my tea Without sugar-    No difference.                                         The sparrow shits    upside down —ah! my brain & eggs                                         Mayan head in a Pacific driftwood bole —Someday I`ll live in N.Y.                         Looking over my shoulder my behind was covered with cherry blossoms.                                                Winter Haiku I didn`t know the names of the flowers—now my garden is gone.                                         I slapped the mosquito and missed. What made me do that?                                         Reading haiku I am unhappy, longing for the Nameless.                                         A frog floating in the drugstore jar: summer rain on grey pavements.        (after Shiki)                                         On the porch in my shorts; auto lights in the rain.                                         Another year has past-the world is no different.                                         The first thing I looked for in my old garden was The Cherry Tree.                                         My old desk: the first thing I looked for in my house.                                         My early journal: the first thing I found in my old desk.                                         My mother`s ghost: the first thing I found in the living room.                                         I quit shaving but the eyes that glanced at me remained in the mirror.                                         The madman emerges from the movies: the street at lunchtime.                                         Cities of boys are in their graves, and in this town…                                         Lying on my side in the void: the breath in my nose.                                         On the fifteenth floor the dog chews a bone- Screech of taxicabs.                                         A hardon in New York, a boy in San Fransisco.                                         The moon over the roof, worms in the garden. I rent this house.
