Love is the Coldest Whore of All
by Kirk Alex
Blue collar free verse without the fakery
& pretentious bullsh*t.
Won't find any of that bogus/tough-to-discern metric and/or rhyming crap here that way too often is squeezed out by certain academics with the cushy gig to impress their pals. Guess what? Most of us have no use for it. Scream it from the gut, or else don't bother.
The author has been a cabbie/factory worker/warehouse shipping clerk/bread delivery driver/plant nursery flunky/printshop gofer/meat plant packer/shelf stocker/jackhammer operator––to mention a few jobs he's toiled his way through over the years in order to subsidize the writing. It's called paying dues. Hand-to-mouth. It goes on. Wage slaves like me, millions of us, get it.
This is for readers who relate to writers like Louis-Ferdinand Céline/Knut Hamsun/Nelson Algren/Eddie Bunker/Derek Raymond/Jim Thompson/John O'Brien/Nathanael West/James M. Cain/Horace McCoy/Donald Goines, et al, who nailed it raw & real without the convoluted agenda & word trickery.
Kirk Alex is also the author of Blood, Sweat & Chump Change –– L.A. Taxi Tales & Vignettes; Lustmord: Anatomy of a Serial Butcher; the Edgar "Doc" Holiday private eye series, the Chance "Cash" Register Working Stiff series, and a few other novels, short story collections & volumes of free verse.
