I think there can be multiple words on each line, so they have to be split 
into words first.  Maybe something like:

(ns example
  (:use [clojure.contrib.duck-streams :only (read-lines)]))

(let [lines (read-lines "file.txt")
      words (mapcat #(.split % "\\s") lines)
      ing-words (filter (partial re-matches #".*ing") words)]
  (doseq [ing-word ing-words]
    (println ing-word)))
