I'd heard about Bukowski a year ago, that he was a poet that drank and was a bit wild, so thinking he was some kind of American Brendan Behan I made a beeline for him but heard /read just one poem and really thought it an offensive pretentious rebellion, didn't like it and never bothered again.I'm sure I was probably jealous, maybe it's time to revisit Charlie.Totalfeckineejithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05352708391465031655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8012340126991815859.post-37247807423525683992009-06-09T17:21:24.301+01:002009-06-09T17:21:24.301+01:00Thanks again Rachel,blogsare good for thinking alo...Thanks again Rachel,blogsare good for thinking aloud aren't they?
