A cool vid of my old prof, Clive Meachen, late of Aberystwyth American Studies Department, UCW, Aberystwyth, talking the talk - and walking the walk... I say 'old' - we're the same age... but he's better looking... ho ho...

Hm, I got to read some more beat literature. And I should memorize a beat poet's poem, to balance for the Robert Frost poem that I can recite by heart. I'm certainly not a traditionalist like Frost, but "un-free" verse just is easier to memorize. (On the other hand I once could recite some free verse stuff of Bertolt Brecht, so this is no excuse.)
I used to know large chunks of Ginsberg's 'Howl' - and can still rattle off a fair bit of the first section - 'I saw the greatest minds of my generation destroyed by madness...' etc
