Kerouac Stories

A short story I wrote and kind of rushed but it's fine with me. Not really my style of writing either so... I don't know, hope you like it.

La Prose Spontanée, c'est quelque chose de rapide, d'instinctif, de vivant, quelque chose qui vous consume et vous brûle. Comme une improvisation de jazz, la prose spontanée, amenée par Jack Kerouac, c'est écrire au fil de la plume sans trop savoir ce qu'il y aura au bout de la page...

A poem for times of discord.

Deep Prose.

This is an poem that talks about how Jack Kerouac's 'The Road' inspired Katy Perry's song Firework. Russell Brand was Katy's Dean Moriarty. It also speaks on how his work helped Kristen Stewart through a turbulent time of her life. She was just caught cheating with the Snow White & the Huntsman director and was still experiencing backlash from the Twilight movies.

For Jack, bless him, he died much too soon. This is another one with a beat, so SING IT! (and speed up a bit near the end).

A short story in which Elise and her grandmother, Mirabelle, find a way to rebuild the bond that has faded over time.

Her life was plagued by a dragon. A dragon that dominated every action and reaction. A dragon that destroyed the tiny part of her she might have possibly liked. One day. The dragon was always there, sitting on her shoulder and nestling in her thoughts. Burning up everything that was good and pure; turning every positive into a sad mess. There was no way to be rid of it. The dragon must be slayed and yet an inner weakness allowed it to remain. She had no way of escaping the bond she had with the dragon and her desperation to do so only forced her to create; to create a sanctuary the dragon could not penetrate, no he could never hope to do so.

To be read out loud.

"But what is your happiness? What is the one thing in the world that you can do that no one else can do for you?" On the day of his brother's death, 28-year-old English musician Lee Highbary takes an empty seat in a crowded pub only to inherit the mess that is 20-year-old American Nin Adler. Nin is fixated on suicide while Lee would do just about anything to avoid having to go home to Manchester for his brother's funeral. Through their own separate perceptions on death--they form what could be an unbreakable bond. But will it be enough to save either or both of them?

Ode to Jack Kerouac (Lost Manuscript - Posthumous "Next Book")

"Howl" is a poem written by Allen Ginsberg in 1955, published as part of his 1956 collection of poetry titled Howl and Other Poems, and dedicated to Carl Solomon. Ginsberg began work on "Howl" as early as 1954. In the Paul Blackburn Tape Archive at the University of California, San Diego, Ginsberg can be heard reading early drafts of his poem to his fellow writing associates. "Howl" is considered to be one of the great works of American literature. It came to be associated with the group of writers known as the Beat Generation. There is no foundation to the myth that "Howl" was written as a performance piece and later published by poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti of City Lights Books. This myth was perpetrated by Ferlinghetti as part of the defense's case during the poem's obscenity trial. Upon the poem's release, Ferlinghetti and the bookstore's manager, Shigeyoshi Murao, were charged with disseminating obscene literature, and both were arrested. On October 3, 1957, Judge Clayton W. Horn ruled that the poem was not obscene.

Poems by an Italian guy who moved to Dublin. Cheap loves, cheap beers, bad jobs. And fights. Bukowski would have probably been disappointed. But you always were, Hank, weren't you?

La mattina, al momento del risveglio qualcosa è nell'aria. Una presenza, che di notte ha vegliato sull' inconscio ragazzo, ora si presenta davanti ai suoi occhi. Dalle profondità delle tubature urbane, qualcosa è emerso.
