brilliant book, sometimes hilarious, mostly a brutal sobering splash of cold water in your face, for example: a poem that says something like: "well its pretty lonely at the bottom too" haha! that is great: at once funny, cynical, sad, and totally real

this book was

like buying some works

cooking the essence of it down

in those bent and blackened spoons

of days gone by

drawing it up into the syringe

tapping that bubble

tightening the belt with my teeth

finding that vein

and sending it

at supersonic speed

through me

This is the best book ever written. Whenever I feel sad I read it and it makes me laugh. It provides an entirely fresh and realistic perspective on the modern condition. I think it is one of those books that will be discovered in a thousand years and be the center of a religion or something.
