“Have wide-angle vision, each look a world glance. Express the vast clarity of the outside world, the sun that sees us all, the moon that strews its shadows on us, quite garden pounds, willows where the hidden thrush sings, dusk falling along the river run, and the great spaces that open out upon the sea… high tide and heron’s call. … And the people, the people, yes, all around the earth, speaking Babel tongues. Give voice to them all… Make it new news… Write beyond time.”
Lawrence Ferlinghetti in Poetry as Insurgent Art
