The venerable Highlander regularly features poetry on his excellent blog ,Cactus Mouth Informer .I know that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but I'm not going to have regular poetry posts. It's just that I chanced on this poem by Charles Bukowski, and it pressed some button. Read more of his verse here...
Bukowski's novels, by the way, are well worth a read.
Melancholia
the history of melancholia
includes all of us.
Imagine Mrs Doyle's voice, "Go on, Regular poetry posts."
