Where is Alan Ginsberg?
I Fear a
multitude of minds wallowing in their ineptitude and madness,
who wish to build
a wall of isolationism. Who do not realize who provides
the bread for
them to butter, picks their crops, or cleans their toilets. Fat and bloated
waving their 44
ounce convenience store cups;
waving their
stars and bars, vehemently holding their god hates fags
signs and their
burning crosses; putting words in our founding fathers
mouths; rewriting
our history books promoting only a god who
tortured Galileo,
denying History that shouts its warnings to deaf ears,
warning of its
repetition when ruled by the proudly ignorant.
I fear the 21st
century minds putting dinosaurs on Noah’s ark;
future fascist
leaders providing us with our convenient common enemy;
telling us what
to think and believe; giving us the means to the absolute selfie
we desperately
seek for our fifteen minutes
though we’ve long
forgotten who Andy Warhol was, or what he warned of.
I fear we’ve
forgotten you Allen Ginsberg…
among many other things.
