I had an excellent birthday yesterday! I conquered one of my biggest fears and drove to San Francisco by myself just to visit the famous City Lights Bookstore.(It's only a 2 hour drive away but a hectic city to drive in!) It has a very fascinating history behind it, but long story short it's famous for publishing Allen Ginsberg's Howl. It was a lot smaller than I was expecting but still cool and worth the trip. I'm happy with my little haul 🤗
Happy Independent Bookstore Day!!!!
Had to go with this one for #howl. It was my first introduction to the beat poets when a high school junior read it at a poetry slam I attended. #itwasthe90s #howl #octoberxfiles

I don't own or read much #poetry but I absolutely had to buy The Howl when I visited City Lights book store as Lawrence Ferlinghetti, owner of City Lights, originally published the poem. Ferlinghetti was faced with jail time for publishing this "obscene" poem until a judge ruled it as a piece of literary work with social merit.
San Francisco was awesome and I got to check City Lights off of my book store bucket list! 📚📚📚
#marchintoreading day 23: #favoritelastsentence. So many! But I really love the ending of Howl part I by Allen Ginsberg.
All time favorite #poetry. ::the picture is from my wedding, we used an old card catalogue for table assignments and library cards with fake stories about each guest. So much work but totally worth it!::

Was watching an old episode of Archer, and Howl by Allen Ginsberg. Come to find out, my boyfriend has never heard it before. Cue pausing the episode and listening to Ginsberg read one of my favorite poems.
