THE LIVES WE LIVE

ALLEN GINZBERG(1926-1997)
Allen Ginsberg poetry was liberated from form and academic burden by
"creation of open,vocal spontaneous,energetic postmodern verse."
...

Who is this slave master
makes me answer letter in his name?
Write poetry year after year,
keep up appearances
This egoist who file cabinets
leave no room for more
picture of Me?
