Kalda stríðið II

Fyrst það virðist liggja í loftinu er réttast að árétta Ginsberg:

America you don’t really want to go to war.
America it’s them bad Russians.
Them Russians them Russians and them Chinamen. And them Russians.
The Russia wants to eat us alive. The Russia’s power mad. She wants to take
our cars from out our garages.
Her wants to grab Chicago. Her needs a Red Reader’s Digest. Her wants our
auto plants in Siberia. Him big bureaucracy running our fillingstations.
That no good. Ugh. Him makes Indians learn read. Him need big black niggers.
Hah. Her make us all work sixteen hours a day. Help.
America this is quite serious.
America this is the impression I get from looking in the television set.

Allt ljóðið má lesa hér. Hér má svo heyra mixteip af Ginsberg að lesa það við lagið Closing Time eftir Tom Waits.
