What does the London punk rock scene of the 1970s have to do with the bloody religious turmoil of seventeenth-century England? And why do the occult connections between Munster antinomianism / and Johnny Rotten so concern a young American poet and cittern player (originally from Tennessee) who also happens to be one of the world's leading authorities on Louis Zukofsky? In Mark Scroggins' Anarchy (cf. Paradise Lost II. 959-967 and the Sex Pistols), Baalim / and Peorim smash a thousand / Telecasters and Marshall amps. Scroggins ransacks British history to give us words for a t-shirt / traced white / on black...and so much more.
