Welcome, what’d you read during your binge?

 

[FallinMontreal]

Thanks bonnie, got laid off and went through all the novels minus Hollywood and the last night of the earth poems, plus a bunch of video poems on YT there’s a ton of great accounts.

Sorry about the change in job status, but that is certainly a Bukowski type life experience.
Last Night of the Earth is one of my faves - “Telephone” is just too accurate.
Cheers

Welcome. Last Last Night of the Earth is also my favourite - he just got better and better. T

It’s the difference between reading a book on learning how to ride a bicycle and an angry, beer breathed, three day stubble, drunk yelling in your ear.

Great stuff.
