Where is Allen Ginsberg (alternate spellinz? Kute
correspondences, ironic allusions and the transmigration of
internet personalities) when we have forgotten him? ( He did
write a poem about ego confessions: "I want to be known as
the most brilliant man in America...Who saw Blake and
abandoned him...I want to be the spectacle of Poesy...") 


"recall what Plato said in his 'Republic',-- 'When the Forms
of Musick change, 'tis a Promise of civil disorder.'"

"I believe his Quarrel was with the Dithyrambists," the REVd
smoothly puts in, "--who were not changing the Form of the
Song, he felt, so much as mixing up one with another, or
abandoning them altogether, as their madness might dictate."
