Footnote to Howl

The repetition of "Holy" and the long line structure of the poem brought up the sense of rushing. Even though the lines are long, but the rhythm is still really fast. The tone is rather appreciating and happy. The poem is like a celebration of madness of the attitude, the passion, but not the mental illness.
