And Bokowski died of leukemia at 73.

BIM BIM BIM BIM. I'm taking a drink. Oh, here is my poem: 'You Are Family' This poem is for my family, for those that are bonded by blood. To my father, my mother, all of my siblings, For with you I am more than enough! This poem is for my family. To my grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins; With you I have plenty, and am always beloved! This poem is for my family. To those I call, “friend”. To whom I love dearly and shall be with ‘til bitter end. This poem is for my family. To those I’ve called “partner”, the love you have given will always be with me. For this I am humbled and will strive to love harder! This poem is for my family. For those that I call “teacher”, for lessons that they’ve taught me and for being my believer! This poem is for my family. To those I’ve called “mentor” that guided me through life’s tragedies and for being my healer! This poem is for my family. For my friends of future and past. Although you’re not with but always a part of me, and for this I am glad! This poem is for my family. To the ones no longer among us, their spirit exists in a manner celestially, and for the time they were here, boy! our lives were abundant! This poem is for my family. to the reader who might be dealing with life’s hurdles, you are cared for so deeply, and I am happy you are in this world.

Go Canadians!

Lee. Thank you so much for posting this! These truly were the good ol' days at MI 🎸

He lives in my heart. What would he say 2024. So much has been said before by him.

im alive, hes dead. ill be dead, and youll be alive. youll be dead, and theyll be alive. theyll be dead, and theyll live.

It is harder to do in prose, but easier to understand in poetry. The betrayal is no less significant. The masses, the people, want, love, and desire only the lowest cliche garbage. Pay attention to song lyrics, all songs. While you do, consider this; someone BEFORE ALREADY IN THE PAST was a genius writer, a genius poet, and they ALREADY DID say that awesome memorable thing. Cervantes. They would say time flies, or pouring rain, or a hard night, sleep with one eye open. On and on. The point is.. did you say that first? Are you the first person ever to put those words together in that order? Most hit songs are just things already said famously. My point being, the audience LOVES! bad writing. They will not 'kick you out of bed' for cliche. Like writing in cursive, you will come to find that there are few capable of appreciating it. Journalism is not far behind. How do you become a rich journalist? Lying in small words. Talent will take you nowhere.

You came here for 8:15

Bim bim bim

Usually, it's done by putting words on a page

Thanks for explaining that. I was going crazy tryin to figure out how he did that :)

🤣

Hank is always right . . . even when he's wrong.

Bukowski kinda reminds me of Mike Tyson. Its that specific windsom and humbleness. Also you see the warm kindness in their eyes and you feel the light. What a legend!

I totally understand what he means about the writers that put him to sleep. His writing is definitely something else. Can't stop reading him once I start. He is so real.

salut louise cest charly de 2024 je taime bien, beaucoup ciao bella

Buk, speaks the truth. Frank and piercing 😅

I read some old Hank poems years ago and thought he was a juvenile dipshit. 3 years ago i completely fell apart and now i only get pure joy coming from this man.😊

This fraud never wrote a poem in his life, the drivel he regurgitates isn't poetry, it has no meaning, when are people going to wake up to this hoax?

Words are our only means of talking to ourselves, other than punching each other in the face.

"... even the flowers are trying harder."

Bukowski talking about how to write is like a crocodile talking about how to fly, he was a source of misery and depression, his writings were utter rubbish.

We desire novelty yet the mundane of modernity squashes all opportunity to explore and experience novelty. At some point, with age, unless you still got the "juice," as Mr B says, it gets harder and harder to seek novelty ("things take on a repeat. . . has that ended?"). At 67 and still full of vim and vigor, and Sober, my bike helps me experience novelty as well as the daily writing of fiction.

Full interview?

What he is saying here is that most lauded poets accepted into the canon of poetry he cannot relate to and doesn't see the value in, because they are unrealistic and self-indulgent, as they don't match his extremely cynical worldview and waste their time on romanticizing and beautifying what isn't actually very beautiful or much worth a damn in the first place. Bukowski was a subversive in many ways, from the way he lived, to how he thought and wrote. Any great pessimist is. They must naturally go against the grain, even admittedly in as disorganized a fashion as Bukowski often did... Although he was often in love, like so many typical poets, he would always maintain that "love is a dog from hell". Not your usual poetic declaration, but it does strike at the heart of the matter here...

11Years later and i still think this is ultra amazing and deserves way more views!

“One day we’ll all be dead, and knowing that is what keeps me going in life”

I'm an unknown poet on the cusp of turning 60; concerning his views on death... he wasn't wrong.

I have just finished reading Bukowski's 'Factotum.' Having experienced moving from one dead-end job to another, it has deeply affected my soul and my perception of life, despite my graduation in the field of microbiology. Sending love from the Western Highlands of Scotland.

“Find what you love and let it kill you” Charles Bukowski

What a guy..."next question".

Old school. Remember this from the 80's. I'm old now lol!

Okay. So I decided to rewatch Aliens and as the intro plays I hear the score and I ended up here. Glad I'm not the only one hahah

Buk was so ahead of his time that he made a vlog rant even before YT was invented.

He loved a certain spirit that drives us crazy.

4:10 lol no one ready for guys like us

this is everyday life in the government ...that mentality wow wow

dont you think this is a matherfucker cracy?

"he died choking on his own vomit...GREAT!..... So he's not even a professional drunk" i curled over laughing😂

That guitar is hideous.

20-second commercial, for a 15-second video. With, C.B., well worth it!

Plagiarism or not, the theme in Aliens still hit hard like 2001

This is what the sanction of the victim has accomplished; that we are ruled over and have given our consent to an army of Ellsworth Tooheys.

Alright folks we got a bad show for you tonight.. legend 😅😔

Joshua Claridge.

Today, it's been thirty years since you passed. Hopefully you had an ample supply of booze and broads in the afterlife. Or better yet, I wonder if you're reincarnated with a better father and phenotype living a better life compared to your younger years. I think you would appreciate my candor now by saying your "Bim-bim-bim" advice is full of shit in your novels. You just drank, got laid, quit your job and repeat. I think you were talking about your poetry.

Gorgeous lines Lee.

Gosh, if it were not for his wierdness about women, I'd almost vibe with him. I am at such odds with myself about liking what I have experienced of his works. It is like 'whoah this rocks...oh, and he is talking vile bile about women again.'

Hey buk
