Charles Bukowski
from my bed
I watch
3 birds
on a telephone
wire.

one flies
off.
then
another.

one is left,
then
it too
is gone.

my typewriter is
tombstone
still.

and I am
reduced to bird
watching.

just thought I'd
let you
know,
******.

there is a certain kind of loneliness at 3am--
a kind of sweet embitterment
fuelled by the mild discontentment
of moments passed.

ten pennies for your thoughts

Forgive me Father
for I have sinned
but oh God,
did I feel like a saint—
(when I unzipped his jeans
like locked church doors)
(when I read the marks on his skin
like words from the bible)
(when I got on my knees
and swallowed salvation)
I like them young and religious
Poem from past times that I kinda wish I could go back to
