>I finished my beer and then the disgusting thing happened, a most
disgusting thing. Sarah picked me up and placed me down between her legs,
which she spread open just a bit. Then I was facing a forest of hair. I
hardened my back and neck muscles, sensing what was to come. I was jammed
into darkness and stench. I heard Sarah moan. Then Sarah began to move me
slowly back and forth. As I said, the stench was unbearable, and it was
difficult to breathe, but somehow there was air in there—various side-
pockets and drafts of oxygen. Now and then my head, the top of my head
bumped The Man in the Boat and then Sarah would let out an extra-illuminated
moan.

>“Come, you damned fiend of a thing! Come!” she demanded. Sarah was totally drunk on wine and passion. I felt myself being rushed back into the tunnel. She worked me rapidly back and forth. Then suddenly I sucked air into my lungs to increase my size and then I gathered saliva into my jaws and spit it out—once, twice, 3 times, 4, 5, six times, then I stopped…The stench increased beyond all imagination and then, at last, I was lifted out into the air.
>Sarah lifted me into the lamplight and began kissing me all over my head and shoulders.
>“O, my darling! o, my precious little cock! I love you!”

>A writer who couldn't write

I thought The Most Beautiful Woman In Town was terrible.

Hey, at least it isn't 'Poop and Pee' Pynchon.

I was actually aroused somewhat when he went on his great spelunking adventure.

ITT: Americans reading books about Americans.
Aren't books supposed to show or tell you something you don't know, havn't seen or haven't experienced? Bukowski is more something for Europeans and american Hipsters.

>>951032
Yeh, because we've all spent time as alcoholics living on skid row.

>>951636
American culture, you can just view MTV and you get the same. Bukowski is just for hipsters who think they would be too smart and educated for MTV.

>>951643
This is a broad and seemingly unfounded generalization.

>>951643
Oh, when did they start reading bukowski on MTV?

>>951886
seriously, I haven't watched MTV in a long time. Do they feature ugly men who have no money now? The mind boggles...

>>951643
So what, wanting to read a book instead of watching MTV makes me a hipster?

>>951643

I disagree. VH1 obviously represents American culture better than MTV.

"Flavor of Love" was like a reflection of my life growing up. Skanky black women everywhere....those were the days.

Notes of a dirty old man...frikin' genius.

>Where do I start

Start with a better author.

Cool contribution to a literature board, buddy.
