    Wee, modest, crimson-tipped flow’r,
    Thou’s met me in an evil hour;
    For I maun crush amang the stoure
    Thy slender stem:
    To spare thee now is past my pow’r,
    Thou bonnie gem.
    —Robert Burns (1759–1796)

    window—I have the key—Get married Allen don’t take drugs—the key is in the bars, in the sunlight in the window.
    Love,
    your mother’
    Allen Ginsberg (b. 1926)
