Bedroom Eyes

Someone,
a man,
once told me
when I was
eleven or twelve
that I had bedroom eyes
I can’t remember
if I knew what he was talking about
but now
I walk into
my bedroom
I look in the mirror
and see blue eyes with
alot of white under them
and a slightly tired look

BZOO Poetry & Music Radio 'On-Demand' Allen Ginsberg - Father Death Blues

Father Death Blues - Beat Poetry - Allen Ginsberg Official Website

Allen's Notes: "Father Death Blues" was written within 20 hours of hearing of my father's passing. A message from my Tibetan meditation teacher the Ven. Chögyam Trungpa, Rinpoche, said: "I extend my thought that your father enter Dharmakaya. Please let him go, and continue your celebration." I was on the plane home with my harmonium on my lap and wrote it word for word, note for note, like "Jessore Road". One of the rare occasions when both words and music -- the vowels and their tones and pitch -- were conceived simultaneously in the depth of feeling, realization of death. The voice on it is a voice located in the heart area, that is, it resonates in the breast. That's the quality of voice that I heard in Blake vision back in 1948. I never consciously actualized that voice in poem or song of my own until "Father Death Blues". Physical energy diminishes as you get older, but supposedly there's a deepening of wisdom. It seems to me "Father Death Blues" has as much weight and will be as lasting as anything I've done. This recording is '81, after five years' experience singing it with Steven Taylor.

Journalist Judith Miller Jailed ~ Should journalist be forced to give up their sources?

New York Times Journalist, Judith Miller, told U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan that she had no choice but to protect her source in a case that has drawn nationwide attention and renewed debate over a common practice by reporters. "If journalists cannot be trusted to keep confidences, then journalists cannot function and there cannot be a free press," Miller said.

"There is still a realistic possibility that confinement might cause her to testify," Judge Hogan said.

More than 20 reporters have been jailed for refusing to identify sources in the past three decades, according to the group.

In order to keep the trust of informants, under certain circumstances journalist should be able to keep their sources confidential. However if a persons life is in danger, not their livelihood, then it would be appropriate to expose the source.

At the sametime, one would have to consider the endangerment of the informant also. Hence, a discovery would be necessary before forcing a source.

What do you think, should journalist be forced to give up their sources?
