The drinking song..
Once I met Bukowski in California and he told me. Never truth a man, who never drinks. I learn with old age. He was right. Drunk men or women will tell you the truth. Even if you don’t want to know.
Now old age had stole my energy and I keep doing forward. Tonight I write drunk man poetry and it feel so damn good. I am smiling tonight and I don’t know why?
I have found God and I have danced with the Devil. The Devil was more fun. The Devil told me to have fun, be wild and travel. God told me to me kind. I am kind and I am dancing with the Devil.
Bukowski told the truth. No-one wants to hear the truth. Ukraine is being destroyed. Why does no-one care? I am a old soldier and I would stand with Ukraine. I would be honored to be side by side with the Ukraine soldiers. Die for freedom, to die to protect the people of Ukraine. Where is Europe?
I am drinking tonight. I know I had a good life. I have two grandchildren sleeping in my house and and a kind wife. I am praying for Ukraine. Please pray for Ukraine. I saw the suffering of war. I buried thousands in Africa who died from sickness and hunger. I cried for stranger.
Today we must force our leader. We must defeat the Devil. The Devil is the Russians. Today so many are paying the price for greed. The drinking song, I sing. I pray our leaders are listening.

Oh, amazing you should say! Our family lived there for 18 years, both our girls born there too. I’d say you’re right — but it’s not all the people, who are very nice. Somehow the way of peace was shared between us all, but other powers stepped in with a darker agenda. And who can cope with main force?

Hello Williams and I agree. I never had no problems. Maybe young and loco?

You know? i went throughout all the bars and discos and nightlife places in five states for ten years straight. It was to get donations for our church. And, you know what? The best, most honest, truthful, good-hearted people were to be found there, wreathed in clouds of smoke, drinking and all! God bless us all!
