America after all it is you and I who are perfect

America
Allen Ginsberg

America I’ve given you all and now I’m nothing.
America two dollars and twentyseven cents January 17, 1956.
I can’t stand my own mind.
America when will we end the human war?
Go fuck yourself with your atom bomb.
I don’t feel good don’t bother me.
I won’t write my poem till I’m in my right mind.

TRUE STORY I was listening to the mp3 when I scrolled down and got to this. Happy Ginsberg Day!
