About "Holy Thursday" by Allen Ginsberg

This alternate take finds Ginsberg leaning harder into the dirge, his harmonium wheezing like a chapel organ with asthma. The same Blake text becomes a darker incantation—less hymn, more haunted prayer—where the tension between sacred and profane never resolves.
