Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork by Richard Brautigan
This was a very short collection of very short poems written about life & death; sex & food and memories & regrets. I enjoyed the raw grittiness of it all. I felt like many of these were written on the fly with little hope from Brautigan of ever seeing them published. I really enjoyed Brautigan's, " Willard and his Bowling Trophies " and I felt that this collection was definitely in the same vein. I could waste my time writting a long thought provoking review, but it would be longer than this book, proper. I gave this a 5/5.
