Charles Bukowski
I met a genius on the train
today
about 6 years old,
he sat beside me
and as the train
ran down along the coast
we came to the ocean
and then he looked at me
and said,
it's not pretty.

it was the first time I'd
realized
that.

The Rose
So beautiful- yet
Far from perfect

Luscious
Crimson Red
Top-
Yet
Crimson Red
Blood-
Drips
From the thorns

The Rose
Tries to free itself
From the hands of the man
Who grasped her Sharp, Spiny, Stem

The Rose
Is stuck
With-
That man

That "Man"
Who
Wakes up at noon-
Who
Doesn’t do his dishes
Who
Has no plan but labor
He- is
Ambitionless

All that "Man"
Will do-
Is hold the rose-
In a vase

And later on
--You--
Will regret
Wasting your youth
away

From
A
Neuron-
Transmi­tting
Signals-
Hundreds
Of
Thousands
Of
Signals-
Every
Second
To
And
From
A
Functioning
Brain

Small

A burnt child
Dreads
The fire

Seems dark-
Doesn’t
It?

I would

To
Dread
The fire

How does one
Know-
To dread?

One can not
Know
What to
Dread

How-
Do we learn?

Go

           out-

Ill see you there.

Where I am
In my
Life- Currently-

Friends
Are a thing of
Fiction

Family
Is all I see in the
Future

And

Nemeses
Never really did
Exist

In my
Life- Currently-

The closest
Thing to a friend
Brother

He is
Smarter
Than me

I don’t mind
Though
I like a challenge

Im learning
New things
Every day

It seems each time
I see him- I- have
More and more to say

In my
Life- Currently-

After I study
I head to the
Factory-

****-
The-
Factory-

That place
Is filled with
Ignorant- pigs
