From McSweeney's:
If Alan Ginsberg had written "Who Let The Dogs Out?"
(by Ada Wofford)
Who let the dogs out? Who! Who! Who! Who undid the cosmic latch of MAN? Radiating cool and silver in maniac nights Perverting the heavy machinery of LAW Who? Who released these animals that bark and wag and fuck and drip drool from twisted tongues escaping pens of teeth? Who! Who! Who! Who let the dogs out?
Who? Woof! Who? Woof! What moment of history was fucked and birthed this new chaos? Woof! Who? Who willed this furry anarchy? Who let the dogs out? The answer! The answer! Who! I rummage through the teeth and fur to seek, to see Kibble! Kibble! They shall eat us alive! What villain of the good practiced such evil upon our chainlink Edens? Who! I demand to know! Who! The answer! Woof! Impossible howling! Who! Zenith impossible! Woof! Terminal impossible!
We are in the yard now! We are in the pen! Who! Who! Who! Who imprisoned man? Who replaced the latch? Who begat this chaos? Maniac frenzied Slobbering! Scratching! WE LICK OUR OWN BALLS! Who imprisoned man? Who! Who! Who! Who let the dogs out? Who? Who? Who?

Well done!
I hope McSweeney's spelt Allen right, though.

Ginsberg never wrote lines as short as that in his life. The whole line = breath thing was the very heart of his poetics. And the language is more Michael McClure, who would have had real growling and barking in there.

Although Allen had been dead for three years when "Who Let The Dogs Out" came out, so he probably would have been shorter of breath than he was in his prime.
