Quote by Allen Ginsberg
I have a new method of poetry. All you got to do is look over your notebooks... or lay down on a couch, and think of anything that comes into your head, especially the miseries. Then arrange in lines of two, three or four words each, don't bother about sentences, in sections of two, three or four lines each.
Summary
This quote highlights a new approach to poetry, wherein the poet is encouraged to draw inspiration from personal experiences and thoughts. The method involves revisiting one's notebooks or adopting a relaxed state of mind, like lying on a couch, and focusing on various aspects of life, particularly the hardships or miseries. The resulting poetic composition should prioritize brevity, using two, three, or four-word lines organized into sections, without concerning oneself with traditional sentence structures. This style of writing promotes a raw, spontaneous expression of emotions and ideas.
