"Moloch who entered my soul early! Moloch in whom I am a consciousness without a body!"
"Moloch whose blood is running money! Moloch whose fingers are ten armies! Moloch whose breast is a cannibal dynamo!"
"I'm a brother, but I'm not a rival."
"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion."
"I'm a Buddhist, which is a religion that believes in reincarnation and that every living thing is sacred."
American Beat poet whose Howl (1956) faced an obscenity trial and became a counterculture manifesto. Closely associated with Jack Kerouac (Beat novelist, On the Road) and William S. Burroughs (fellow Beat, Naked Lunch). For an intellectual contrast, see T.S. Eliot, high-modernist poet of The Waste Land — Ginsberg's open-line confessional Beat verse was a deliberate rejection of Eliot's allusive academic formalism — the two halves of mid-century American poetry.
