Life Is Like A Bukowski Poem
Life Is Like A Bukowski Poem
public, raw and ugly
no punches held
back,
rough, red scars on a
beaten-down body
a drunken Soul
thirsting for more,
as if you're defending
your own all-alone life,
as if an energy
sucks you through
to the other side
where his poems
live
oh, so fuckingly beautifully,
alive.
