Mad “king” ‘sa sa sa(d) sa(yingtong) by the C.see.sea(?):
‘No, no, no, no! Come, let’s away to prison.
We two alone will sing like birds i’ the cage:
When thou dost ask me blessing, I’ll kneel down.
And ask of thee forgiveness: so we’ll live,
And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laugh
At gilded butterflies, and hear the poor rogues
Talk of court news; and we’ll talk with them too, —
Who loses and who wins; who’s in, who’s out: —
And take upon us the mystery of things,
As if we were God’s spies: and we’ll wear out,
In a wall’d prison, packs and sects of great ones,
That ebb and flow by th’ moon.’

After (USA) Judge Clayton W. Horn, declaring/judging Allen Ginsberg’s HOWL to be NOT ‘lewd and obscene’: Life is not encased in one formula whereby everyone acts the same or conforms to a particular pattern. No two persons think alike. We are all made from the same mould, but in different patterns. Would there be any freedom of press or speech if one must reduce ... vocabulary to vapid innocuous euphemisms? Authors should be real in treating their subjects, and be allowed to express ideas in their own wordZ.
...
e.g.,A.G.(how-long how-lin’ out lines like?u2: ... ‘how long must i sing this song?{!}’
): “... a lost battalion of platonic conversationalists jumping down the stoops
off fire escapes off windowsills off ..
yacketayakking screaming vomiting whispering facts and memories
and anecdotes and eyeball kicks and shocks of hospitals and
jails and wars,
whole intellects disgorged in total recall ...”

... the civil war in former Yugoslavia ...
... crude, kitsch, divorced from reality ...
(... and sung in howling voices ... with screaming musical accompaniment ...)
... eg: “Who is the liar who says Serbia’s small?
She’s fought three wars and won them all!”
