About this title

Synopsis:

Poetry. "Rhythmically I have tried to capture the tempo of my time, its ecstasy, its hardness, its lyricism, its great variety. The songs are musical, and I took a seat with the rhythm, its fluctuations, and the way in which they make music, which reaches in each poem its own order: repetitions, choruses, instrumental changes, the deposition of the phrases.Each poem, however, must produce its own music, because each poem must be free in itself. I tried to express through rhythm and language, in the flow of images, the freedom, at last, of the poetic voice. I write these poems all the time. At home, in the car, backstage, at cafes.I am always writing this single poem. Since I was 15. And I intend to continue writing them for the rest of my life" -Julian Beck, 1925-1985.
