A brief snapshot of Allen Ginsberg's views on the use of drugs to alter consciousness and the government's intervention. Ginsberg sees that as interfering with creativity and expresses that in this brief statement. I find this intriguing for its historical value as well as its political provocativeness (is that a word?). I really appreciate this piece and look forward to hearing more.
