Oh Ginsberg, sweet Ginsberg .... poem by Stefano Donno

Oh Ginsberg, sweet Ginsberg,

Poet of the Beat Generation,

Your words still ring true today,

A voice for the unheard nation.

 

You sang of the human heart,

Of the world's hidden fears and pains,

And in your words we found solace,

Amidst life's trials and refrains.

 

You were the voice of the people,

Champion of the marginalized,

Through your poetry we saw a world,

Beyond the veil of lies.

 

How we miss your angelic verses,

Your piercingly sharp insights,

Your words that cut like a knife,

Yet gave us wings to take flight.

 

Your legacy lives on, sweet Ginsberg,

In the hearts of poets and dreamers alike,

And through your words, we'll continue to fight,

For a world that's just and right.

 

So thank you, sweet Ginsberg,

For your courage and your truth,

Your spirit lives on in your poetry,

Forever young and ever soothed.
