Sunflower Sutra

   It feels like that it's more like a follow-up for In back of the real, the poem at the back of the collection. With numerous personification of industrial objects, Ginsberg bursts open his thoughts while looking at this sunflower. Although the mentioning of Jack Kerouac, another great Beat Generation figure, is yet unclear to me, this poem provokes this Mural images in my head that glorifies human and generally understates the machineries.

   Ginsberg here is trying to tell sunflower, the people, that we should not so tied with the conformity that we are 'supposed' to conform into,  but rather should search and ponder who we really are and free up ourselves little more.
