Hmm, so far I've yet to find any poets whose work comes anywhere close to Buk's. I do like the Russian guys Yeveny Yevtushenko & Vladimir Mayakovsky & W.Whitman is great, but most of the poetry I've tried (inc. the classics) seems overly self-indulgent/romantic/lyrical...or about nature (I love nature - but it can speak for itself)
So...any great poets a Bukowski fan might like? (I tried a couple of the guys Buk name-checks but at this point Jeffers is the only one I liked)
