Howl Allen Ginsberg – Poem by Daniel Partlow<\/strong><\/p>\n

~<\/strong>
\nHowl Allen Ginsberg with Nebuchadnezzar\u2019s
\nPrideful Madness-Lycanthropic
\nFor this generation\u2019s minds lie bleeding and ravished
\nin the streets of the libertine-philosophic
\nYour angel-headed hipsters of darkness marshalling
\nthe hollow-eyed masses to their graves.
\nIsrafel softly sings his damnable odes in the classroom
\nand o\u2019er the air-waves.
\nTwo hundred million saxes wail false laments
\nlike the butchered-truths of the painter Francis Bacon
\nBut when one prays at the altar of Damien Hirst
\n(or de Payens) just Who and what has been forsaken?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Howl – Poem by Lucienne Kim Flavell<\/strong><\/p>\n

~<\/strong>
\nI want you to feel
\nthe insufferable loss of me.
\nI want you to feel as though
\nyou’re unable to function
\nwithout me.
\nI want your body
\nto quake and quiver
\nwith the fantasy of me.
\nI want you to sweat
\nand howl; to run
\nin wind and hail,
\nthrough bracken, branches
\nand stinging nettles
\nand find me
\nin a queue at Tesco’s
\nand tell me
\nthose awesome words.<\/p>\n

Ravenous Howl… – Poem by Dorothy Kardas, Psy.D. Th.D.<\/strong><\/p>\n

~<\/strong>
\nToo far apart!
\nDisfigured by mar,
\nDespise astatic ways…
\n(For florid felicity
\nCannot flourish
\nIn driblet of fell duplicity…)
\nUnfold the arduous maze
\nTo reach highland,
\nCovenanted Place,
\nFinishing providential race.
\nNot ever stopping
\nAs horse galloping,
\nSpitting, spitting, spitting
\nIn the Old Serpent’s face!
\nRays from Footprints gleaming
\nIn torturous distance streaming…
\nToo far apart!
\nRepulsion of each mar!
\nToo distant
\nHem of Your Cloak
\nStarved for soft stroke…
\nFire within
\nNeeds to be stoked…
\nCan’t touch Pierced Hand,
\nStained in Blood sand…
\nMend wounds oh! mend…
\n(Euphoric Grassland!)
\nYour Silhouette
\nOn distant shore…
\nSoul… lapse no more!
\nEnclose Ring of fire
\nCrush, burn
\nEmpty desire,
\nSilence denier –
\nPerpetual liar!
\nSole
\nDeathless
\nInspirer…
\n……… …………………………………………. ………….
\nSilence my tongue
\nWhen I do not speak of Thee…
\nMake my pen barren
\nIf I fail to ‘write’ of Thee…<\/p>\n

A Werewolf Howl – Poem by Anna Turtle<\/strong><\/p>\n

~<\/strong>
\nA howl in the night,
\nCuts the silence in two,
\nA howl in the night,
\nMakes you ask \u2018who? \u2019
\nIt is a lonely hunter,
\nThat stands on the field,
\nIt is a lonely hunter,
\nThat hasn\u2019t yet killed,
\nA creature so big,
\nAll covered in pelt,
\nA creature so big,
\nWhit its head high held,
\nA wolf on two legs,
\nHowls to the moon,
\nA wolf on two legs,
\nIs going to kill soon,
\nIt is called a werewolf,
\nDeadly as few,
\nIt is called a werewolf,
\nIf just you knew.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
