Huge Dreams: San Francisco and Beat Poems Paperback - 1999
by Michael McClure
Summary
The New Book/A Book of Torture was written spontaneously while McClure was in a "dark night of the soul" brought on by psychedelics. A single long poem of experience and exploration, it offers the means of liberation from the darkness it examines. Star is a wide-ranging book of chalice seeking, spiritual discovery, and political protest, grounded in the emotions and sensations of eros and play.

Excerpt
MATTER IS ALIVE, BY GOD
MATTER IS ALIVE!
The grains of crystal slide.
It is the molecular consciousness!
((I must be a Pagan
to survive it
?TO SURVIVE
this vision.
With grinning teeth!))
It takes its shape.
Fanatic Will.
Dripping. Pouring. Pressing.
