pilgrims to elsewhere

I'm reading PILGRIMS TO ELSEWHERE to learn

more about poet Bob Kaufman who also plays a 

part in my sequel to ROOSEVELT. I like this passage 

from an essay in this book by Gregory Stephenson:

"Reading the work of Bob Kaufman (1925-1986)

one senses the urgent and relentless determination

of the poet to engage and put to rout the combined 

forces of Injustice and Destructiveness, Intertia 

and Illusion, and to unfurl above a liberated world

the banner of Beauty and Joy."
