Asshole
When I'm not in the mood for bullshit, Bukowski reads as overrated. But when my defenses are down, it scratches an itch in a place just out of reach. What a degenerate piece of shit. The carousing with the loose and monitarily obligated. The discarded bottles of Cabernet. The gambling on horses saddled by tiny men.
How come the most broken are often the most spoken?

"Made me laugh. There's something about "tiny men" that's funny, I can tolerate Bukowski, but only in small doses." -

About Me
About me
I'm a 49 year old neurodivergent mushroom hunter and California expat living in the dirty south. I've been writing on and off for the last 35 years and I tend to gravitate towards themes of observation, introspection and irony. I would say my writing is greatly inspired by the beat generation, Hunter S. Thompson and Douglas Adams
