Definitely for boys (mochoman fantasy).He is also overrated by alo of people.
I refer to him sometimes as the poet for people that don't like poetry. Iv'e lived liked bukowski (even in san Pedro) and we fell the same way about people.
How about this one (if you don't mind me trapping you)

Hey amigo, did you ever get a chance to see that Bukowski documentary I mentioned earlier in this thread?
No, and its one of the only things I really want to do. Im recovering from an accident though so I have to rest. I will watch alot of movies and be on A2K alot.
accident?! what happened? you ok?
(...and feel free to trap me any time).
It's you who have trapped my baby.
In a ring of FIRE.
well thank you very much.
now i'll have johny cash (in a ring of fire...) stuck in my brain for days
and everytime i'll sing it, i'll think of you. but that ain't a bad thing, really.
A good ring of fire.......like hot passion fire....hello.
So.... what are you up to tonight?
Nothing...and you?

Que pasa?
Quote:...I think that I am just ill
with life, the same stale yet
fluctuating
factors.
even at the track
I watch the horses run by
and it seems
meaningless.
I leave early after buying tickets on the
remaining races.
"taking off?" asks the motel
clerk.
"yes, it's boring,"
I tell him.
"If you think it's boring
out there," he tells me, "you oughta be
back here."
so here I am
propped up against my pillows
again
just an old guy
just an old writer
with a yellow
notebook.
something is
walking across the
floor
toward
me.
oh, it's just
my cat
this
time.
well, that's from the man himself, since we're featured and all...

size=18]The Bluebird[/size]
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going
to let anybody see
you.
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pour whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he's
in there.
there's a bluebird in my heart that .
wants to get out.
but I'm too tough for him,.
I say,.
stay down, do you want to mess.
me up?.
you want to screw up the.
works?.
you want to blow my book sales in .
Europe?.
there's a bluebird in my heart that.
wants to get out.
but I'm too clever, I only let him out.
at night sometimes.
when everybody's asleep..
I say, I know that you're there,.
so don't be .
sad.
.
then I put him back,
but he's singing a little
in there, I haven't quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it's nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don't
weep, do
you?
Bukowski
