Mickey Rourke was one of the best actors ever. He should have won an academy award at some point. He was the best.

Plus, which may make Bukowski happy, I had a few in me when I first wrote. Anyway, glad to see we like a few of the same poets. Also, though, in fairness, Bukowski hated most things! LOL!!!

@losing2woody Hank? What you knew the guy? I've read a shit load of Bukowski and I think Rourke hit the mark, basically. Anyone would fall short. Bukowski was Bukowski. And, though his poetry is at times elegant, the entire thing became an act. He became an entertainer. Go read some Rilke, Baudelaire, Neruda. Your comment really pisses me off. I think we could be friends!
