This poem was inspired by a suggestion from Andy Sewina, aka SweetTalking Guy. This is a very brief flash fiction written in three American Sentences, a poetic form conceived by Allen Ginsberg.

jack and Neal on the road
were rape’n their angst
in carnal combustion
allen was howl’n
pal’n with corso
but still white-hot for peter
hunter was fearful
loathing it all
as bohemia went tie-dye

Hi Rob, You made my day, what a pleasure to wake up on a sunny Sunday morning and to be able to read this. Takes me back to the sixties and the references make me think of Easy Rider, beat poets and wonderful memories. Excellent!

Beyond words !!
“Allen was howl’n” is a great line! Sometimes just a few words can bounce us high. There again suddenly here today. And me right now posting this – and smiling. Wide. Thank you. Spring day. Sunshine.
Andy –
Thank you for the kind words!
I tried to wrap two decades of writerly outburst into the three sentences. Glad this reached you… 😉
