Hemingway was real Good at it. And Bukowski,London,Faulkner,Joyce, McCullers Fitzgerald,Thompson, Kerouac etc. I've heard 20 year old Girls And 40 year old Women Speak ill Of drunks. I always want to ask "What did you ever Accomplish Sober That was so Great?" Fante always seemed real Pure to me The innocence The young Burning Passion Of his lines. I read A biography today And even Fante was a ********* Drunk. I smiled Exposing the missing tooth In the back Cracked the cap And felt Even more hopeful. The blood of Christ.
