Mr. Bukowski,
Well, does that house next door still,
make you sad?
With the two kids and all, in bed by 9
And the absent mom and dad
I need to know
And Mr. Bukowski,
How fair the ice cream people?
Do they vote still,
For a cruel man?
You didn't vote,
Nor do most of we
The insane
But,
Do you carry a vote now?
I need to know
And Mr. Bukowski,
How the hell is Cass?
She's kept me awake
Many nights,
Is she still beautiful?
I bet so
And Mr. Bukowski,
What of the girlfriends,
You didn't wish to see?
Do you see them?
I need to know
And Mr. Bukowski,
I miss you.

Mr. Bukowski,
Well, does that house next door still,
make you sad?
With the two kids and all, in bed by 9
And the absent mom and dad

And Mr. Bukowski,

Do they vote still,
For a cruel man?
You didn't vote,
Nor do most of we

And Mr. Bukowski,
How the hell is Cass?
She's kept me awake
Many nights,

And Mr. Bukowski,
I miss you.
Mr. Charles Bukowski is one of my all time favourite writers. He makes me laugh, wail right out loud like a child and grin. Sometimes all at once. And I miss his works.
