I feel the hesitation of accepting "The Fiend", or the refusal to write something similarly taboo can be what is holding one back. When my lady was pregnant, I thought of undesirable things that could've happened. Still born, mental retardation, baby cancer, severe autism, SIDS, all that. If I...

Couldn't put it down since I opened the first page and excitedly enjoyed every line/word and letter. I was surprised at the amount of bad reviews it had received, and liked the change up from Mr.Chinaski. Ham on Rye, Factotum, Post Office, Women, then Pulp. Hollywood, here I come....

He probably would've asked me how to play Stravinsky's Rite of Spring or how to not abandon your lady and your offspring.... On off topic but current topical conversational linear flow, no thanks Rekrab. I'm currently drunk and considered this was worth posting after serious deliberation

Well, its was 30 degrees, I was on vacation, had endless amounts of cold beer when I read Ham on Rye, sitting outside cooking in my own juices with bloodshot eyes and a perma-grin, so that reminiscence is probably weighing against why its is my favorite Bukowski read in retrospect... I plan on...

' crapshoot i can get sloppy drunk smack my head on the edge of a pool-table at suzy Q's and get a ride home from the bartender because i'm a preferred customer or i can drink bourbon down on ingersoll with the newspaper reporters match them bullshit for hyperbole on...

Another by Justin Hyde: //my grandfather was a deadeye// he dropped pheasants at eye-level, doves with a pistol, quarters thrown in the air for shots of whiskey. after he passed, dad got his old double barrel shotgun lucy. she hung from two lengths of twine in the...

Agreed, but the question wasn't if he saw himself as an anarchist, just whether or not you saw him as one After reviewing some posts on this thread, I'm finding it less likely to find Buk an anarchist, especillay because of 'Davids' post, no anarchist would consider a form of government...

I've read worse, I don't like it, but I've read much worse. There was a lady 40ish, on the bus the other day, handed her book of poems to a friend to read, I read over her friends shoulder, "Friendship is like a flower It blossoms and then it grows" and then I puked in my mouth a little

MJP, when you posted the poem by Jewel, all the negative responses in regards to her seemed to have stopped, I'm not familiar with Jewel except for her poppy tunes and videos; I'm not condemning or advocating 'pop' music, what is 'pop' music, Popular music? Well shit, if its popular, I'm out, I...

I have an ex-girlfriend named Rachel, but she spelled it Rachael, no love loss, I hope you grow into a pleasant young woman, unlike my Rachael.....welcome to the floor

Spot on Scribbler and Olaf, spot on...

From the above I read about a snotty, bourgeois type religion, not what I think you intended Scribbler... I think you can be an anarchist and have accomplished things similar to what you have mentioned (minus most of your 'parentheses' words), except I disagree with the "complete control over...

Anarchy is a broad topic, it can't be nailed down, 'subscribed' to, pigeonholed by one person's ideas and/or personal take on certain aspects of the word. The names you dropped above, (Bakunin, Proudhon) had two very different takes on which 'type' of anarchy they believed in, yet both still...

Anarchy is not It is basically the "no masters, no slaves" motto, I did not get into which 'sub-group' of anarchy he most closely fits, just that, as far as putting a political ideal on the man, I feel an anarchist is most and quite fitting...

...an anarchist? (In the literal sense) And that he felt sorry for people stuck in the nine to five due to a wife, a mortgage, children; that the 'American democracy' was capturing souls and he saw the answer in himself ... part of this thought occurded to me after I read his "Let It Enfold...
