Poem written by Ginsberg whilst on LSD, during his visit to the cottage of publisher Tom Maschler in the Black Mountains of Wales. As he later recounted, "my approach to [the poem], originally, was self-contradictory because?taking an…acid trip, and then wanting to gain something, bring back a poem, maybe a poem about God or something?see God and bring back a poem!?pay your mind, see God, bring back a poem, cash it in to The New Yorker, get a hundred dollars, take the money and run back to the next universe." The long poem printed here alongside a facsimile of the original manuscript, and illustrated after 4 full-bleed black-and-white photos of Ginsberg by Maschler. Complete with 45 RPM record of a Ginsberg recital, housed in enclosure to rear pastedown. A fine copy in olive papered boards. With photo-illustrated jacket, in original glassine; also fine, save for very minor chip to glassine at lower front corner. Signed.
