  • and Harry potters going to play him in an up coming film.. apparently.. which is likely to result in the portrayal Allen Ginsberg as a man with one facial expression... for every occassion..

  • A great poet, a great writer. Obsessed with his work for years, and yes, he seemed a thoughtful person. But he was a pedophile. He harassed and haunted and fucked young boys. Art is not more important than character...

  • This was one of his best. but it really helps to hear him say it himself. next time I read it I'll understand it better.

  • Awesome. I saw him live and met him after the reading. He

    was a beautiful person. Very Thoughtful!

  • well, at least he's honest!!!

    

  • i smoke marijuana every chance i get

  • @treid100182 It is funny.  Obviously there is more than humor, but it is very funny. You'd be surprised how unseriously literature takes itself sometimes. He wants people to laugh. He doesn't want people to just sit there and pick his words apart.

  • @treid100182 i believe they are laughing because some of its funny. but i agree that they laugh at inapropriate times... but for some of it they are laughing at funny things.

  • @treid100182 whats to get about the scribblings of a degenerate jewish homosexual?

  • Poets deal with the worst audiences imaginable ... they don't get it, so they just ... laugh.

    annoying as hell.
