c. bukowski

my favorite poet

writes for ever

about relationships



i haven't read him

for a while, but

i often think of him



his fame and his ability

to plod out the words



i used to think about him

listening to classical music

thumping out poem after poem

and wonder how



now i am at 346 for you

listening to van morrison

wanting your kiss

making you poetry

i can see how passion

for beauty is beyond

what we know and



knowing life has value

In my humble opinion, you are better than the Old Bukeroo!

In thirty years of reading poetry, this is one of the finest critiques of another poet that I have seen; and it far transcends the merely academic studies---of Bukowski or of others.
