I'm currently using the "Second Coming" W.B. Yeats.
I have to present one to a rather large group so I wouldn't mind some other ideas. Thanks in advance. |

If you like Howl, and want some Ginsburg most people may not have already heard, try "Witchita Vortex Sutra". Good stuff, done shortly before his death, I believe.

I love you, you love me.
Going down the sugar tree. We'll go down the sugar tree, and see lots of bees: playing, playing. But the bees won't sting, because you love me. -Reed Rothchild |

Someone already mentioned "Howl" by Ginsberg and another one of my favorites is "Charge of the Light Brigade" by Tennyson.

And another
The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner From my mother's sleep I fell into the State, And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze. Six miles from earth, loosed from its dream of life, I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters. When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose. -- Randall Jarrell |

The Wasteland - TS Eliot
The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock - TS Eliot Howl - Ginsberg Those are the three that most people will have heard of. I'm not going into the obscure stuff (I was a creative wruiting minor with a concentration in poetry). |
