This poem is highly fragmented, this may be a symptom of a traumatic experience a representation of a fragmented fate of his subjectivity or could even be portraying the fragmented state of his mothers mind and also creates a flat emotional tone . In this instance the fragmented language reflects Ginsberg’s emotions and the stilted distance of his relationship with his mother as things between them are cold this demonstrates the awkwardness of their reunion as things are not the same as they once were. Overall this original desire for the mother which fills a void of for fulfilment and connectedness can never officially be erased even though the child may be encouraged to transfer their desire towards more socially acceptable devices.
