Lucinda,As far as "introducing" myself, and letting everyone know how much I admire Charles Bukowski, visiting a thread such as this speaks for itself, doesn't it?
How did you just happen to find this thread in a forum with hundreds of threads and just happen to have read the book in question? It is all just too curious... If you were sent here on a blog or forum fine, but it should be noted. If you were shown this link by someone pushing my hyde's book, fine, but it should be mentioned.
Otherwise it certainly gives the appearance that you were send here to shill for the author or publisher.
And if everything else that you are reading is stale and bland then you need to look deeper. There are many damn good young poets writing out there. Many of them, like mr hyde, remain completely unknown to the poetry world and relatively unknown to the small press.
