These are harsh words that match the harsh content of the poem. You can have repetition that comes off as jarring and harsh, like 'Moloch!' Moloch sounds like what it's indicating: it sounds like the content of the urban, industrial, harsh setting, right? And the auditory stress of 'solitude, filth, ugliness' or 'sobbing in armies.' Repetition can not only make something sound pleasing and beautiful. So this part is more cacophonous, right? Note the harsh, repetitive consonants. Part two: 'What sphinx of cement and aluminum bashed open their skulls and ate up their brains and imagination? Moloch! Solitude, filth, ugliness, ash cans and unobtainable dollars! Children screaming under the stairways! Boys sobbing in armies! Old men weeping in the parks! Moloch! Moloch! Nightmare of Moloch!' And it matches the sort of jazzy content of the 'angel headed hipsters' and the 'starry dynamo,' right? The 'hollow eyes' and 'smoking the supernatural darkness.' You can you can feel the rhythm, right? It's this momentum, this euphonious momentum, that's picking up speed as I read the long lines. You know, there's a music, there's something beautiful about how the lines just blow out. It's long lines- what Ginsburg would call 'long breaths'-almost like jazz riffs. As you can tell there's a rhythm to this poem. Who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high set up smoking in the supernatural darkness of cold water flats floating across the tops of cities contemplating jazz.' s Angel-headed hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly connection to the starry dynamo in the machinery of night. Part 1 'Howl, for Carl Solomon': 'I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by madness starving hysterical naked dragging themselves through the streets at dawn looking for an angry fix. I'm going to use Allen Ginsberg's 'Howl,' his title poem, to explain this idea. It's thinking about the sounds of words- how they pertain to the context and the content of of the piece of literature. It's more about how the sound may or may not match the content of the piece of literature. So cacophony means 'bad sound.' You know, cacophonous.īut there's more to it than just good sound / bad sound. 'Euphony,' you know, like, 'euphemistic.' 'Eu' means good. You can probably tell what it means by its sound.
