Redskin Poets ransack Philosophy,
fandom-style, charge theirĀ 
needful burning.

Not for or against Ezra Pound or Allen Ginsberg or even Antonin Scalia.

"needful burning"

Indeed!

Excerpt from:
"Twelve years of a soldier's life in India: Being extracts from the letters of the late Major W. S. R. Hodson"

January 3d. - We did not get back from Goorsahaigunge
till two this morning, very weary and tired, and
now comes an order, just as I am sitting down to write,
for my regiment to march at once to join the Chief's
camp near Futtehgurh; so I am again reduced to the
mere announcement that I am safe and well. I have just
heard that the rebels have bolted from Futtehgurh.

4th January. -A night-march of twenty-five miles, tents up
at 1 P. M., after which breakfast, and two interviews with
the Chief and his staff, have not left me much daylight or
time for the post. Futtehgburh was abandoned as I foretold,
and our troops are all concentrating here, not a shot having
been fired. We remain here a few days, only a few inglorious,
but needful burning expeditions will probably be all we
shall have to do.

Redskin and Paleface, as you know, was a designation between the 1960s and 1980s, concerning wild and free poets like Allen Ginsberg and the Academic ones who remain nameless in their integrity.


There is a book called The Outlaw Bible of American Poetry. That is Redskin.

The Paleface are the guys who design poetry. Like the Matrix. Like nature.


I used the two-words, needful burning, be-causel, I didn't want want to repeat the word REd
