Out of the Mouth of Bukowski

Contributed by Barky on Friday, 3rd December 2004 @ 01:17:03 AM in AEST
Topic: oops



Charles Bukowski
has lit a fire under my ass
he says
"writers either write
or jump off a bridge
because they can't hold it in"
and by god
I can't hold it in anymore
I've always felt like I've had something to say
and now
I know it doesn't matter
what happens to me
i can fume
hate
kill
love
long
destroy
retaliate
and laugh
in my own writing
Bukowski
has lit a fire under my ass

I really enjoyed this poem, I guess it's a good thing you chose to write, rather than the alternative.
