...or even Rochester in the 17th century. Some of his work is still effectively "banned" from schools.

Bull shit, havent you read Baudelaire, or Rimbaud? They came a whole 100 years before Ginsberg's howl. Gotta read before you speek.

this is where poetry lost its flowery scented ridiculousness and became as explosive as a machine-gun report...as awakening as a scream or might i say,a howl?.............where poetry grew a lions mane and a lion's roar

I'm an anarchist. Communism doesn't really work in practice ever, not in the way anarchism could in any case.

Communism is an ideal, the ussr is a state there is a big difrence the ussr is not Communism in its fullness nor allmost at all it can hate gay people and Communism can not care at all. Communism dose not hate gay people, just as bush hates gays and he runs the USA but that dose not mean that democracy hates gay people unless the ideal is self hates gay people
