The BBC has reported the death of Lawrence Ferlinghetti at the age of 101. He was at the vanguard of Karouac, Ginsberg, Burroughs and all those others who grew their hair, smoked psychedelic cigarettes and drank tinctures of poetic darkness and light.
Ferlinghetti and his cronies were the people who set the likes of Warhol, Morrison, Cohen and Dylan free to delve in to the ‘smoke rings of their minds…’
Farewell Ferlinghetti, so many of us will never forget you … here’s what the BBC said about you
