I love how he mocks the interviewer who he absolutely knows is pure shit--it is the grace of a poet bestowed upon a neophyte in the twilight of his years. In younger days he would tell him to fuck off and beat him if he didn't. But now, it's all the same to him. Kill him with another drink, and save him with love--the truth is beyond him and he can't be saved anyway. (cont...)
The messenger is dead, finally, and at last, and gets to rest. The Belgian, curly-haired faggot must carry on, only to be known as he who couldn't keep up with Bukowski, drink for drink, truth for truth. Because for him, like for most, it was too hard.
Haha!! Love how Buk ends it. Be happy. We're both tough men through the horrors of life. And I think that was his secret. Despite everything he didn't hate life or people. He was just indifferent to it all. And I can certainly understand his notion of monotony and repetition and not fearing death.What a man. I admire him highly. RIP Buk.

My hero. I'd not know of him if not for a "My Interest" blip on the profile of some long dead myspace chick.
