I posted another ****** poem in haste Because when everyone f a l l s asleep I am left alone thinking of THE GREAT SLEEP And I needed someone to tell And I needed someone to feel the hurt Like I did
But it was a ****** poem So it sat, unread as me and I read Bukowski's work Because I needed someone to feel the hurt As the sheets itched and my eyes stung So I leeched off his rotted heartache
