54 years ago today Allen was crowned Kral Majales, King of May, in Prague’s first student May King celebration allowed since the Communist take over after WWII.  This doubtlessly had a part to play in his expulsion to London by suspicious Czech authorities 6 days later. (Photo: Karel Syrp) ”… and I am the King of May, which is long hair of Adam and the Beard of my own body / and I am the King of May, which is Kral Majales in the Czechoslovakian tongue, and I am the King of May, which is old Human poesy, and 100,000 people chose my name, and I am the King of May, and in a few minutes I will land at London Airport, and I am the King of May, naturally, for I am of Slavic parentage and a Buddhist Jew who worships the Sacred Heart of Christ the blue body of Krishna the straight back of Ram the beads of Chango the Nigerian singing Shiva Shiva in a manner which I have invented, and the King of May is a middleeuropean honor, mine in the XX century despite space ships and the Time Machine, because I heard the voice of Blake in a vision and repeat that voice”. #kralmajales #mayday #kingofmay #allenginsberg #poetry #instapoetry #writer #karelsyrp (at Prague, Czech Republic) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw7R_NCB0EM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1nyqebokghvhe

“I personally believe that I lived a previous life or something… a previous reincarnation, a bard of some sort, because most of the things I write about are descriptions of places I’ve never been to.” - Marc Bolan
