now that Bukowskis dead
what are all the
wanna-bes
that never were
going to do?
what are they
going to do
for inspiration?
who
will they
turn to now?
whos going to tell them
how to drink,
think
or write?
whos going to tell them
that Dostoyevskys cool
that John Fante
had a way
with words
and that its
a lot more fun
to stay in bed
and think about it
than it is
to have to
get up
and write about it?
now,
theyll
pick his bones
like they did
with all the others
and look for reasons
where there were
none
and explanations
where there are
none
where (more often
than not) theres just
some slob
who lived his life
and wrote
and loved
and slept
and ate
and died.
theres
no mystery at all
really
just
ask
Bukowski.
