Some of Ginsberg's poetry is up on webpages if you're interested. Sort of typical beat generation stuff, not anything great but some of it qualifies as good. J

I'd go to sleep again and try to follow what happens next. Once we're out of the 2000s the 2010s are going to make the '60s look like the 80s. You wanna be on that bus. J
