Real Poet
Howl title itself shows how the poet inner cell (heart) is breaking into
small pieces by the race discrimination.The capitalist leave their body and
attack blacks' soul very badly .So the big inner pain of cry is turning
into howl.And the poet confess the reality crystal clearly to the society
and coming generation.Every lines of the poem shows more image of the
reality.Frustration of the black were shown,Black want to resistant all the
domination by showing negative attitude towards so called capitalist
society by breaking all social norms and values which so called high class
people established for their own selfish fulfillment.The peace strike is
mostly similar with Gandhi peace protest in India.Capitalist were closing
their eyes and pretend not seen anything,to bring more attention towards
the black, black were showing very different attitude and behavior in the
society,And the result black moment is possible and success.So this poem is
the paining crying of black people in American society.Black always think
whites were their brother, so they did not do any violent protest as
resistant rather making just howl.So i appreciate black and their belief in
brotherhood and nationhood.So United we stand Divided we fall is came into
reality in American History.

I would not have even considered reading this poem if it were not for my
Enlish teacher.But as a read the poem I was fascinated.I thought "wow it is
so raw and out there",and I began to think that the world is really like
that.Its as if the poem just throws picture after picture of how the world
really is.Its a slap on the face telling you to wake up to reality.Reality
is hard to take in because we dont really see what we chose to ignore day
by day.Its as if Ginsberg wants you to know what he sees not as an artist
but as a person,a person who sees beyond the pretty
picture.....................................

Bob - how interesting would a poem from a well rounded person, with
acceptable life experience and a complete absence of social quirks be? I'm
sure you would rather hear the same poem from the same person for the rest
of your life, no? That is not to say, however that diversity cannot exist
in social normality - but rather, that it placates limits.

I liked it. I can see why it is considered his signature piece. It
captures a era, yes. It kind of reminds me of e.e. cummings the way the
words take quick and sharp diversions. Unfortunately, and I knew someone
who got chastised for saying Beethoven's Grossa Fugue is too long, I
thought this was too long???

Mary and Bob: Howl is the perfect post modern poem; it mixes everything
together. It is amazing that he wrote this poem while sitting with his type
writer and just letting the words flow. Swearing may be an offense to some,
but he is letting out his thoughts in a way that we see his mind. Ginsberg
was a pre-Hippy Bohemian (spelling?)who was very much on drugs, and lived a
homosexual life. He is aloud to write poetry on his thoughts and life, I
agree with Savanna. Also, there is a recording out there of Ginsberg
reading Howl with Avante-Garde music in the background, it really sets the
mood and artistic quality of this poem, and may make it more
understandable.
And yes, I will be an English teacher.
