Beats as a counterculture

As an anti-cultural rhythm, many beat writers write in a way called spontaneous prose. Alan Ginsberg often writes in this style. He did this with the poem "howling", and he glared and praised the society with a voice of his friends - Jack Kerouac, William Valles, Lawrence Felin Getty and Neil Cassidy. He discussed their poverty, their disobedience, the way they fight the society, and their fight against industrialization; he especially understands his lifestyle, his friends lifestyle and perspective They used many images to make their rejection against society.

Beat is an anti-traditional culture that creates the whole movement of art, music and literature.
