Synopsis

There is, of course, no denying the positive aspects of emotional acuteness and respect for the musical aspects of language. Yet to make a true impact on the paying public, there needs to be a truly fresh rendering of poetic expression, one that delivers what Norman Mailer once referred to as a punch to the solar plexus. Think, for example in the world of Art and Music, Edward Kienholz’ Back Seat Dodge and Picasso’s Guernica or George Antheil ‘s Ballet Mécanique. Think. in the world of poetry, Mallarme’s brave experiment Un Coup de Des. Though almost completely ignored by the American literary establishment, Charles Bukowski, and Allen Ginsberg remain today the only American poets universally recognized outside the nepotistic world of American Academia.
