    Pull Me Through The Temples, Pull Me Through The Wine - Targets 4, 1960

    whenever i am reading a poem - and suddenly it becomes obvious that what i am reading is supposed to be a poem - i notice the repeated use of certain letters or words like "like" - or any and all of the "tricks" - when i see this obviousness occuring it makes me ill, and i turn the page or go...

    Pull Me Through The Temples, Pull Me Through The Wine - Targets 4, 1960

    i hate metaphors. i hate similes. they must be used - sparingly. far apart. they are too easy. "a rose is like a hammer beneath the noon sun" - i just made that up. someone might think that's cool. its bullshit. maybe. anyway - i hate the letter "s" because so often poets use it -...

    column

    bill , yes - perhaps bukowski wouldnt have liked cave, the bad seeds, et. al.. he didnt like rock - right? thats ok - matter of a very personal taste. he wouldnt have been picking on nick for being "nick cave" - he would simply be saying he wasnt into that style of music. ive been listening...

    mr. johnston came to minneapolis (where i live) in 2000. he played in a little club (now long gone) downtown. he played about an hour - just daniel and his guitar. i taped it on little cheapo take recorder. very good show. he didnt walk off or leave and he finished every song. it was a...

    Seen any good movies lately? - Films you MUST see

    a film is a dream taking place in front of you while you are awake. a film is a kind of hypnotic state, i think, and we are not always completely aware of what is going on at these times. all i am saying - is be careful. your money is like a vote - too. your money is telling the producers...

    Pull Me Through The Temples, Pull Me Through The Wine - Targets 4, 1960

    to me in the later books it seems like there is about one really good poem out of about 15 bad. but the "bad" ones always seem to have something full of life in them that makes them worth the read. so - if i ever see mr. mailer (i never really could read him) ill have to tell him that he knew...
