Boston College Magazine has a nice (old) profile of the poet John Wieners titled "The Hipster of Joy Street." It includes a lovely snippet from his poem, "The Acts of Youth."
You can read the whole profile on their website.
Wieners died in 2002 and was considered part of the Beat movement even though his poetry had more a lyrical quality. The profile is quite thorough and includes some nice examples from his work, photographs of hte poet, and testimony from Robert Creeley and others.
