Smile ~ H* Joey, first I wish to "Thank You," for stopping by and leaving such a sweet and delicious com upon Amber Sighs. Second, I love the intensity that you so magically brush upon this wonderous self expression of ones interpretations and thoughts ~ Love, booze, sex, drugs and rock-n-roll; strike up the band and hit the high notes, "BRAVO." ~ "Love, 'Always,'" John!:) ~

Wow! That is really a very good likeness of Bukowski. Linda King is quite a sculptress. Love, Carolyn

Interesting poem, James. I hate to think of love as a "dirty dog from hell," but I haven't seen Linda King's sculpture. Maybe you could provide a link here on the poem so people could understand it better. Love and blessings, Carolyn
