Question #1:Does anyone know the type of Camera...?Okay this question might be kinda difficult and I apologize for that.Does anyone know the Type of Camera Allen Ginsberg used to take the pictures featured on the cover of "On the road?" This edition I mean Click Here I would REALLY like to know, if anyone has an answer. Question #2:Can anybody give me some pieces of literature that reflect the Mccarthy area.?I'm doing a research paper on McCarthyism and I need some works that reflect or oppose the current attitudes that were associated with the hysteria of that era.For example I've already incorporated "America" by Allen Ginsberg, but I would like one or two other pieces. Any directions would be greatly appreciated Question #3:Why is it that Nazi Germany made to much sense?They had the autobahn a great health care system a powerful army. They got rid of undesirables. The last time America was great were the 1950's. I think liberals like Allen Ginsberg, Abbie Hoffman, Timothy Leary and others screwed up this country. Because everyone wants to be gay, pot smoking and sick we won't last another ten years. Generation Y is really that Generation Why? Because you kids are so wasted in your minds. You are the last generation evryone will die because of you idiots who voted for Obama. Russia WILL nuke us. If you think they don't have nukes they are lying!Question #4:Can you give me an interpretation for the poem refrain from Allen Ginsberg?Question #5:Any good poets or authors I'd like?I love the style of Phil Ochs' songs and Bob Dylan songs. I'm also a big fan of Allen Ginsberg. Jim Morrison, Robby Kreiger's songwriting is also great, as is that of Jimi Hendrix. "The Time Machine" was a pretty good book, but I'm not a big reader, mainly because I think most of them have no true meaning underlying the words or the words aren't nearly as poetic as I'd like. I'm wondering if there are any other authors or poets you think I would be interested in.I've also heard of Jack Kerouac and I dig him quite a bit as well. I love philosophy and Emmerson is another one I'd really like to check up on. Thanks for reminding, lol. M.Kiehl, I haven't heard of any of the names you mentioned, but if they have things in common with those I mentioned, they must be good. I'll DEFINITELY check them out. Thanks much, bro. Question #6:What was most of Allen Ginsberg's poetry about?What age is his poetry appropriate for?Question #7:What do you think of this short Ginsberg poem?Allen GinsbergLast Night in Calcutta Still night. The old clock Ticks, half past two. A ringing of crickets awake in the ceiling. The gate is locked on the street outside--sleepers, mustaches, nakedness, but no desire. A few mosquitos waken the itch, the fan turns slowly-- a car thunders along the black asphalt, a bull snorts, something is expected-- Time sits solid in the four yellow walls. No one is here, emptiness filled with train whistles & dog barks, answered a block away. Pushkin sits on the bookshelf, Shakespeare's complete works as well as Blake's unread-- O Spirit of Poetry, no use calling on you babbling in this emptiness furnished with beds under the bright oval mirror--perfect night for sleepers to dissolve in tranquil blackness, and rest there eight hours --Waking to stained fingers, bitter mouth and lung gripped by cigarette hunger, what to do with this big toe, this arm this eye in the starving skeleton-filled sore horse tramcar-heated Calcutta in Eternity--sweating and teeth rotted away-- Rilke at least could dream about lovers, the old breast excitement and trembling belly, is that it? And the vast starry space-- If the brain changes matter breathes fearfully back on man--But now the great crash of buildings and planets breaks thru the walls of language and drowns me under its Ganges heaviness forever. No escape but thru Bangkok and New York death. Skin is sufficient to be skin, that's all it ever could be, tho screams of pain in the kidney make it sick of itself, a wavy dream dying to finish its all to famous misery --Leave immortality for another to suffer like a fool, not get stuck in the corner of the universe sticking morphine in the arm and eating meat. 1968 Question #8:Wow, Did You Hear James Franco (Spider-Man) Is Coming To GH?James Franco to guest star on `General Hospital'NEW YORK — James Franco will guest star on ABC's "General Hospital" for a lengthy story arc this fall.

Cars are always going down the street, lamps go off and on. It's a great flat plain; we can see everything on top of a table. Clams open on the table, lambs are eaten by worms on the plain. The motion of change is beautiful, as well as form called in and out of being. Next : to distinguish process in its particularity with an eye to the initiation of gratifying new changes desired in the real world. Here we're overwhelmed with such unpleasant detail we dream again of Heaven. For the world is a mountain of shit : if it's going to be moved at all, it's got to be taken by handfuls. Man lives like the unhappy whore on River Street who in her Eternity gets only a couple of bucks and a lot of snide remarks in return for seeking physical love the best way she knows how, never really heard of a glad job or joyous marriage or a difference in the heart : or thinks it isn't for her, which is her worst misery. Question #17:Proof of the Power of Prayer?
