The content, structures, and points of view in the poems are chaotic and vary, presumably, according to the state of his mind at the moment when the poet wrote the specific poem. The poems are written usually exposition and feelings with no dialogue at all. This is necessary since Ferlinghetti is not describing actions; instead, he conveys his thoughts and feelings on specific phenomena and events.
