Question
"I'd wash the Amazon river and clean the oily Carib & Gulf of Mexico,
Rub that smog off the North Pole, wipe up all the pipelines in Alaska,
Rub a dub dub for Rocky Flats and Los Alamos, Flush that sparkly
Cesium out of Love Canal"
In this excerpt, Ginsberg uses repetition to reinforce his idea that:
the world is in need of a good cleansing.
anything is possible with determination.
mankind should be more appreciative of nature.
manmade disasters are a result of modern technology.
