Its images are high contrast black and white, as in film noir (Charles Bukowski's favorite genre). Bukowski in the Bathtub is cinema verite on the page.Bukowski in the Bathtub is a portrait of Charles Bukowski by Beat Poet John Thomas. He was an intimate friend of Charles Bukowski between the years of 1965 through 1971. This book is based on the Thomas / Bukowski visits and conversations during that period. Of John Thomas, Charles Bukowski has said, "...he made a place when / there was no place / a place to go when all / was closing in... he lent the easy / saving / natural grace..."

The Coming Struggle Among The Nations Of The Earth: Or The Political Events Of The Next Thirteen Years is a book written by John Thomas in 1853. The book is a prediction of the political events that will occur in the next thirteen years. Thomas argues that there will be a struggle among the nations of the earth, and that this struggle will be caused by the rise of new global powers and the decline of traditional powers. He predicts that the United States will become a major global power and that Europe will decline in importance. Additionally, he predicts that there will be a struggle between the Protestant and Catholic nations, and that this struggle will lead to a major conflict. The book is a fascinating look at the political landscape of the mid-19th century, and it provides insight into the thinking of people at the time.Described In Accordance With Prophecies In Ezekiel, Daniel, And The Apocalypse.

A fully colored and illustrated story of The Parable of the Lost Son. Story taken from the book of Luke chapter 15.
John Thomas, perhaps Los Angeles' greatest underground poet, in the years I came to know him, was a big man with a wise and lined countenance, piercing wit, deep, resonant voice, and always slightly stunned, gentle eyes. Inseparable from his wife, poet and filmmaker Philomene Long, his Muse, Thomas radiated a passion for books and poetry, watching from a respectful distance all that transpired around him. This fueled the poetry; it was as if he, with Philomene, filled with life that lost and real realm behind the cliche we call the bohemian life. They inhabited the depths. One early image is stuck in my mind: Thomas squeezing out of their tiny, classic Volkswagen beetle in front of Venice's poetry center, Beyond Baroque, for the debut of Stuart Perkoffs posthumous Voices of the Lady: Collected Poems. The couple had been close to Perkoff, Philomene as Perkoffs partner at the end, Thomas as his friend. Now, decades on, John and Philomene were like intertwined trunks in a single, majestic, flexible, and bending tree. They had withdrawn from ordinary society, following their vow of poverty, forming a compact with each other outside material considerations and virtually all practicality. When you entered their book and quote-lined refuge three stories up at The Ellison on Paloma Avenue, off the Venice boardwalk, you felt like you were enveloped in an incredible force; they made it safe again to talk about meaning. "The poem" bound them and permitted no rivals. Generally, Thomas spoke very little; he seemed more often like a bystander perplexed by extraordinary and sometimes horrible times. Two things were never in question: deference to the Muse, to Philomene, on all matters; second, tending to a precious cargo, carried, I suspect, from an early visit to Ezra Pound at St. Elizabeths. Thomas, had against the tumults of the years, a deep commitment to reading and to clear and poetic knowledge. Thomas in his very existence embodied a kind of deep, cultural transmission. I believe this was one of the grounding premises of his life's work. It required constant attention, learning, and a storyteller's sensibility-that the mundane and not so mundane, the reassuring and entirely embarrassing, the profound and very light, and all his companions, real and unreal, in this rich journey, be brought forward and told. With works ranging from Epopoeia and the Decay of Satire and John Thomas to the late chapbook Feeding the Animal, Thomas became the raconteur, generator of epigrams, tall tales, and haiku, a restless experimenter with language, subject matter, tone, and purpose, always acting, or as he said "pretending," as if "he doesn't care." Thomas in his way symbolized a clear and generally unexamined divergence of Los Angeles's historic underground from its better known Northern Californian and Eastern counterparts. Charles Bukowski, a close friend, and one never given to pretension, admired Thomas for his poetry and for digging. A diffidence, born of a hard-scrabble life contesting the machinery of money, success, and unreality meant that, for Thomas, in our vast and cruel desert, the poem is a "true and rooted cactus. / Most real and tough."

This is the book the left-wing media complex does not want you to read. It was ban from Amazon, blocked from Facebook, and deleted by Twitter. Built on a foundation of mathematical proofs and consolidated facts this book offers an in-depth analysis into the 2020 Presidential Election. Half of the book is dedicated to Donald Trump and the other half to Joe Biden. Topics include recent events such as the Virus, race relations, police reform, platforms, legislation, comments, and a looming Supreme Court battle. We must continue to fight for our American values in these turbulent times. We have shown great tolerance and the radical left has mistaken it for weakness. In flyover country, we have had our good names dragged through the mud. The left has spoiled what it means to wear the Red, White, and Blue. Joe Biden called us stupid bastards and told us to clap, Kamala threatened us with executive action and endless protest, Obama called us lazy, LGBTQ called us homophobic, BLM called us racist, #MeToo called us sexist, Muslims called us islamophobic infidels, AOC accused us of running concentration camps, Pelosi called our leaders immoral, unethical, corrupt and unpatriotic, Don Lemon wants to blow up our system, Antifa is trying to burn down our cities, and Hillary called us deplorable. However, Trump, who accused us of being patriots and loving our country, is portrayed as the "real problem."
This book arose at the request of a small group of medical students that I had tutored. The facts presented here were workshopped over the course of a year during the tutoring sessions and perfected for maximal retention. This slim book is designed to be a concise review of the most essential, aka, "high yield", facts necessary for success on the United States Medical Licensing Exam Step 2 CK.
MetanoiaBy: John Thomas "Someone is going to die today." Preacher visits a prisoner named Mike who seems uneasy. He asks Mike, "Oh my God, who?" "No one knows. That's what makes us all nervous. We all have enemies. A guy could be killed for almost any reason around here." "Mike, do me a favor, let Arrow know. I hope he is not in danger." "I will, Pastor, I will." Someone dies that day. Who is it, and why? Life in prison can be dangerous, but daily, some will consider living in prison as living in hell. God's not here and doesn't care about me, many prisoners might think. But God hides in unusual places. A preacher makes a call to action, to save an evil man who has to choose between being saved or God's judgment; Jesus and heaven or keep on the road to hell.
