I'm looking for poetic writing filled with poetic passion and abstraction, like your mind in the height of listening to a sun ra jazz song. That psychedelic moment where you feel instead of thing, but capturing it in all it's poetic irony, contradictions, it's pure human nature and complex abstraction. Do you know of works like these?

The classical answer is Allen Ginsberg.

The correct answer in our age is Philip Levine.

Anything else is probably jiggery pokery.
