What thoughts I have of you tonight‚ Allen Ginsberg. The famous Beat writer haunts my own supermarket as Whitman does his. It is difficult to read Howl and Other Poems without succumbing to the vein of defeat running throughout its pages. It is difficult to stop yourself from throwing your hands up in surrender to Ginsberg’s “Moloch.” It is also difficult to read Ginsberg on an empty stomach.

The poem stunned traditional critics. Kevin O’Sulliven deemed “Howl” as “an angry‚ sexually explicit poem”. James Dickey‚ for instance‚ signified “Howl” as “a whipped-up state of excitement” and determined that “it takes more than this to make poetry.” Ginsberg dealt with insanity throughout his entire life.
