It's funny, isn't it? (2) [05 Jan 2010|11:43am] _endangered when we were kids laying around the lawn on our bellies we often talked about how we'd like to die and we all agreed on the same thing; we'd all like to die fucking (although none of us had done any fucking) and now that we are hardly kids any longer we think more about how not to die and although we're ready most of us would prefer to do it alone under the sheets now that most of us have fucked our lives away. -BUKOWSKI post comment

working out [04 Jan 2010|10:46pm] _endangered Van Gogh cut off his ear gave it to a prostitute who flung it away in extreme disgust. Van, whores don't want ears they want money. I guess that's why you were such a great painter: you didn't understand much else. -BUKOWSKI post comment

I'm not a misogynist [04 Jan 2010|10:44pm] _endangered more and more I get letters from young ladies: "I'm a well-built 19 am between jobs and your writing turns me on I'm a good housekeeper and secretary and would never get in your way and would send a photo but that's so tacky . . ." "i'm 21 tall and attractive have read your books I work for a lawyer and if you're ever in town please call me." "I met you after your reading at the Troubadour we had a night together do you remember? I married that man you told me had a mean voice when you phoned and he answered we're divorced now I have a little girl age 2 I am no longer in the music business but miss it would like to see you again . . ." "I've read all your books I'm 23 not much breast but have great legs and just a few words from you would mean so much to me . . ." girls please give your bodies and your lives to the young men who deserve them besides there is no way I would welcome the intolerable dull senseless hell you would bring me and I wish you luck in bed and out but not in mine thank you. -BUKOWSKI post comment
