Come On In! by Charles Bukowski

5.0

Another bukowski book of poetry down & I just cannot tell you how much I love this mans words. This is his later poetry and a lot of it is reflective, on life, mistakes, regrets, and many a thought on death. Because Bukowski was so very aware of his life coming to an end it hits you even harder as a reason and I find myself closing this book with eyes pricked by tears, knowing that he is gone and will no longer fill my life with wonderful, sad and funny words. I find myself childishly wishing that just this one life be spared even though it's already too late. This man just grabs you and fills you up with his every sentence. I adore him, the more I read, the greater my affection for him is. Thank god he wrote so many books of poetry... I have plenty to read yet.
