about

Allen Ginsberg: Voice
Guitar: Seb Taylor
Written by Allen Ginsberg & Seb Taylor
Published by May King Poetry Music, & Sebastian James Taylor

Following my reinterpretation of 'Wales Visitation' I was once more drawn to the intimate nature of Allen's recording. Blessed with a literal connection (as my own flight to Denver circled the city upon its approach) and with the melancholy reference to Neal Cassady's passing acting as a bittersweet theme, I knew this had to be a simple, thoughtful & evocative piece. A 1972 Telecaster Guitar, Valve Amplifier + Allen's Recording was all the inspiration & equipment required.
– Seb Taylor, August, 2022

lyrics

“OVER DENVER AGAIN”

Gray clouds blot sunglare, mountains float west, plane
softly roaring over Denver—Neal dead a year—clean suburb yards,
fit boardinghouse for the homosexual messenger’s
alleyway Lila a decade back before the Atombomb.
Denver without Neal, eh? Denver with orange sunsets
& giant airplanes winging silvery to San Francisco—
watchtowers thru red cold planet light, when the Earth Angel’s dead
the dead material planet’ll revolve robotlike
& insects hop back and forth between metallic cities.

Allen Ginsberg - February 13, 1969
Fall of America Poems: 1965-1971, City Lights, SF, 1973
