The late Allen Ginsberg first published his poem “The Ballad of the Skeletons” in the pages of this magazine in 1995. A portrait of our world of contradictions, the poem was set to music by Ginsberg in that same year in collaboration with Paul McCartney, Philip Glass and Lenny Kaye. Now, with a new release by Ginsberg Recordings, the song can be heard in its entirety once again. Listen to the recording and read the full poem below with illustrations by Eric Drooker.
