Listen to this man, he leads to freedom. And booze. LOTS of booze and the problems that go with booze. But there's no boss, no leader, no pain-master. Just friends, madness and booze. Or you could ask that promotion, John.
it seems to me that every night turns out to be a little bit more like bukowski, but yet i know its a pretty good read, but god who'd wanna be, god who'd wanna be such an asshole.
Bukowski is the greatest writer of 200 years - the most important writer of this time. With a heart of love he told us how to do it ... right on through. Instinct and heart turned to starlight. A drunk through the eye of a needle - he is the biggest miracle of the 20th century.
ah bukowski comments ... who can endure them? Generation x slime all the way: hatred masquerading as cleverness. You dick heads are still haters: still part of this world: still sell outs of a different kind. Bukowski said: 'find out where the spirit is?' And now you fuckin' dullards know ...
Bukowski is sensitive, but not in the effeminate, waspish way which most people define "sensitive" as. He truly does "feel" things, and each experience is like muddy footprints on a clean broadsheet.

Jimmy, please learn how to spell or use spell check before you start posting comments! I'm Not trying to be a hater, but Jesus! Come on! Your talking about writers!
i'm always meetin people who say they're writers. i ask to see their work and they say, "uh, no, i'm still working on it" or "my work's gotta be perect before i let people read it, so no." then i ask them what poets they like and they say, "mainly this guy charles bukowski. he's pretty underground though, so you probably haven't heard of him." that's the moment I know they're a hack. if they somehow think bukowski is "underground." he's the most famous poet of the last 30 years by far.
bukowski is much more sensitive than all the fuckers think. he's more human as thousand people I met on the streets every day! buk lives in my heart...
Bukowski, I know you would have told me to fuck off if I told this to you face to face; but I found you in the worst time of my life, and you saved me. You really did.
Probably more so something you stole from a cheap movie because you can't think of your own lines. More importantly though, all joking aside. From me to you, fuck off.
I am lonely now but very drunk I don`t know is it bad for my healthy helou creeps Iam waiting someone who hate his or hers job still take care his works and wait Charles did it could We ?
OK, since you came a cross this video I have to turn you onto something amazing. I was on Kho San Road in Bangkok Thailand and heard this CD playing Ibiza Fever 2005 so I had to buy it. One of the cuts was "An Ordinary Life" by Telepopmusik, They sampled this interview to some sick ass trippy downtempo. check it out.
@RIPHOFFA75 ....Now didn't you just steal that thought from Lawrence Durrell?...You shouldn't steal other people's thoughts -- you'll always be found out....
@RIPHOFFA75 Only the cheap ones though. I couldnt handle it if those that stay in the $200 $300 and $400 a night rooms all of a sudden started saying "yeah, I read Bukowski..."
@RIPHOFFA75 "Personally, I think rather than the Bible - Bukowski should be in every motel room in America..." this is the start of an amazing poem. Great line.
I LOVE Ham on Rye. I've read it twice and wanna read it again. The part where he talks about hearing that kid playing the sad violin after being picked on is so beautiful.
strangely all the best american writers, those that people in other countries liked best, were of german descent (from mencken to henry miller to buk etc...). more, please!
I remember this comin' out, I'm pissing myself lol Got one or two live cd's, should I post them? I'm not good with video and sure don't wanna rip anyone off y'know.
Buk hated politics-he laughed at the leftists,ridicueled the "peaceniks",really hated their stupidity. If you think Buk favored the left then you have never really bothered to read much about him or by him. He knew that bad,stupid,evil men were from both sides-but he really felt the left and "liberals" the most inane.
bapyou... got to be somewhere else you can offer the world your manifesto. For as much as I agree with some of your offerings... this isn't the place. This is about Charles Bukowski and him reading some of his body of work. Go away.
wars and rumors of wars....the ages of the empires yet not one drop of blood for all the worlds ills. man has yet to develop this primal fear of his brothers lands and yet kills in the name to protect them. at what cost shall we avenge our dead....proclaim them rightous through a sword of justice and beat them into the dust. the story is the same the cast of characters has just changed....
No shit, radicchiojones is right. It is classic Bukowski, profound, funny, ironic, etc. Why the hell is all the political BS here? I got bored tracing it back to it's genesis; actually I got bored with it all years ago, and completely dismayed after the republicans spent eight years gnawing on Bill Clinton to finally bust him for a getting blow job. As President, you would expect that blow jobs from the interns would be a perk of the job.
Yeah. I know it's a Bukowski poem. The dude with whom I'm arguing (RightWingCon81) initially wrote on this post that Bukowski's work is "shit wrapped up in collective agreement that it's art". (Go back and look it up here.) He's a complete & total tool.
Yep, those people are such intelligent mental giants. The fact that you actually had to correct the spelling errors on those posts is a testament to that.
Those idiots are just like you, small minded fools who send me deat threats and insults because i call them on their bullshit.
KSHHHHHH KSHHHHHH, do you hear that? It's the thunderous roar of the crowd as they applaud your discovery of a typo. Yes, I am an idiot, the H in death got stuck while typing that post. Wait, NO! I actually thought the word death was spelled deat. is it D-E-A-T-H? That's silly. It should be deat.
"Yep, those people are such intelligent mental giants. The fact that you actually had to correct the spelling errors on those posts is a testament to that."
Those, ladies and gentlemen, are the words of the Con Man eqauting spelling errors and stupidity. Ain't that right Mr. Deat Threat?
"Those idiots are just like you, small minded fools who send me deat threats and insults because i call them on their bullshit."
Hell, someone like who has swallowed the pre-fabricated hore-pucky from the Bush admin., who the hell is going to trust your ability to detect "bullshit"?
Wait! Didn't I see you sucking Karl Rove's dingleberries on PornTube? Yep! It was you alright. Mr. Deat Threat does Washington!
YEAHHHH, WAY TO GO, everyone please give him his mandatory applause for Bush bashing.
Hey,moron, would you please tell me when I ever served as a "Bush apologist"? Or when i ever shared my political views outside of my SN? Bush is NO RIGHTWINGER,he spends like a filthy dem,and yeah,the dollar is down,oil is up ever since the dem took the house and senate. HMMM! I wonder if that has anything to do with it.
What are you still doing here anyway? I thought I told you to eat your mother's cunt.
"What are you still doing here anyway? I thought I told you to eat your mother's cunt."
Yes, you did tell me that. But, as I wrote previously, the 80 year-old pussies are your department, not mine. I wouldn't want to take away your sole source of getting a piece of ass. I'll give you my momma's phone number if you want it. Always glad to play matchmaker for my friends.
I'm for less spending (Bush is a big spender) I'm for secure borders, Bush wants amnesty. Lower taxes and an end to big intrusive government. I'm for free markets, and strong national security. The only good thing about Bush is that he's a bad ass and takes no shit from filthy ragheads. Bush is a RINO (Republican In Name Only).
Whoa! You have some novel ideas for a Repub! How 'bout that Nat. debt?
"I'm for secure borders"
No such thing will ever exist.
"Lower taxes and an end to big intrusive government."
Lower for everyone & not just the 5% richest?
"I'm for free markets"
Ha ha. That's a good one. Price supports for Amer. farmers? Massive welfare for military defense contractors? Sounds like socialism to me. Or, at least, some form of a fixed game.
"The only good thing about Bush is that he's a bad ass and takes no shit from filthy ragheads."
What about the non-filthy ragheads? Bush is "bad-ass"? I see you fall for that easy jumpsuit/cowboy photo-op bullshit. Guy didn't even have the balls to do any real service during the Vietnam War. His grandpa & daddy slip him ahead of the line to get into the TX Air Nat. Guard where he went AWOL! Bad ass? Lamest example of bad-ass I've ever seen. "Cushy soft rich boy" = more appropriate.
Da wittle boy can't handle the truth about his big bad ass hero?
Is wittle boy gonna go home and cwy to his mommy?
"Waaa! He's using Deomcrat tawking points, even do dey are twuuuuue! Waaa! Mommy! Help! Pwease! He's a bad man on da computa! Telling the truth about my hewo George Bush!! Waaa! Waaaa!"
Keep sticking up for the billionaires, puss. They enjoy it.
You got no answers; only wrong-headed convictions. That's why your leaving this discussion. Puss.
The radical Muslim movement in 1990s Algeria eventually fizzled when they began accusing each other of not being "pure" enough Muslims. The movement dwindled to smaller and smaller groups until what was left were lone nuts hiding out in the mountains.
When you write "George Bush is not a true conservative", it sounds vaguely familiar.
Morons like you who hate the republican party because we are "the party of the rich" of the top 5% of the billionaires are simply losers who never could make anything of themselves and they want the dems to wipe their asses for them. And hey, deat threat, Y-O-U-R is your, Y-O-U apostrophe R-E is you are. Learnt eh difference.
My very screenname lead you to believe I was a Bush supporter, you prejudged me BECAUSE I'm a Republican.
I'm fairly well off but my politics is based on more than economic policies. Economic freedom and liberty go hand in hand. Liberal economic policies keep the poor poor, and bleed the rich. That's much better than allowing people the freedome to advance in life right?
"Deat Threat. It's the only thing you've be right about in this exchange"
Now spelling errors aside, how exactly do rep economic policies bleed the poor? Please explain that to me.
"Coporate capitalism owes nothing to the public good. It owes everything to its shareholders. War is good for profits."
COPORATE? Anyway, capitalism is based in the private sector, very true, and what's wrong with that? Read Smith, or Friedman, they'll explain how pursuing profit indirectly benefits society. Also, war negatively impacts capitalism you moron.
"Read Smith, or Friedman, they'll explain how pursuing profit indirectly benefits society."
Do you mean, like, when a health care company chooses to deny compensation for a necessary procedure so that they can keep their bottom line in the black? That kind of benefit? I'm with you there then. That's a real bonafide example of how capitalism benefits society. Thank your hero Ronald Ray-Gun for instigating the health care crisis.
The health crisis in this country stems from gov't interference into insurance companies. I guess we would be better off with the UK or Canada's system. I mean they may have people dying in ERs people backed up for EMERGENCY procedures for at least 6 months,and insane taxes. Or maybe Sweden's system,you know the one that nearly bankrupted them in the 90s. I prefer a society that allows people to make their own way,where BUSINESS creates jobs,NOT gov't where the desire for profit benefits all.
"The health crisis in this country stems from gov't interference into insurance companies."
Absolutely incorrect. It is the result of letting these corporate entities (ther health care copanies) operate without any controls at all. They deny coverage to anyone they can in any way they can. If you're sick, you CANNOT GET HEALTH COVERAGE! Then, let me ask you, smart fuck apologist, if not to help the sick, JUST WHAT THE FUCKING HELL IS HEALTH CARE FOR?
The health care crisis comes from companies that b/c of over regulation offer packaged policies that include unnecessary "benefits" to certain patients.If the gov't stepped back and allowed these companies to offer what is called a"cafeteria style" health care system it could be MUCH more affordable.Healthcare is there to help people,sure,but insurance companies have one TOP priority,and that is PROFIT.God forbid a business is in business for profit and not some charity work.FUCK OFF YOU TWAT!
A health care system should be about health care. A health care sysytem should not be about PROFIT. Simple. WRITE BACK AND TELL ME THAT A HORSE SHOULD BE A COW WHY DON'T YOU? YOU FUCKING RICH COCKSUCKING BALL-LICKING WHORE! GO SUCK RONALD REAGAN'S DEAD NUTS!
An insurance company is there for profit, a healthcare system set up byuncle Sam will be bankrupted in a number of years like they bankrupted social security.
"how exactly do rep economic policies bleed the poor?"
We've been hearing about tax cuts from you idiots (Republicans) for generations now. I have yet to see ANY tax relief whatsoever with a Republican in office. Trickle down BULLSHIT is what it is. It's a bunch of flat out bullshit. It's tax relief for the rich. Nothing more. Nothing more AT ALL.
2. Aynone with money can avoid paying taxes if they have a savvy enough accountant.
Tax cuts increase revenue,PERIOD,this is BASIC economics. Reagan repaired the failed Carter economy with tax cuts. It stands to reason that if you allow those who are the most productive to have more money to PRODUCE they will increase jobs and profits. And why should the rich not get the better cuts? the top 10% pays 92% of the taxes in this country. THEY DESERVE the cuts(or rather WE deserve them).Your loser bullshit rant is the cy of the loser the redistribution of wealth BULLSHIT rant AGAIN!
Look: I got nothing against anyone with money. What I AM against, is those in the upper classes who, for the past 30 years, have categorically defaulted on ANY kind of responsibility to society at large. Such responsibility is what set men like John Kennedy apart. He was from a rich family, but he thought about more than just his own fucking bank account and the bank accounts of his cronies. THAT is focus of the present administration. Try and deny it motherfucker. I'll bust your fucking skull.
You're speaking of a handful of companies you stupid cock. We're speaking of CAPITALISM AT LARGE you fucking ass donkey. War impedes liberty, andwhen liberty is limited so is profit. Short term gain is NOT what I'm talking about DICK!
"Read Smith, or Friedman, they'll explain how pursuing profit indirectly benefits society"
Freidman as in Milton Freidman? You mean the same Milton Freidman who - after the CIA helped Augusto Pinochet's coup against the democratically-elected Salvador Allende in Chile in 1973 - was directly involved with the economic policy of the murderous Pinochet? That Milton Freidman?
As for the benefit of society by pursuing profit, tell that to the people Pinochet murdered.
Allende was an elected tyrant who was in been with Castro and was looking to turn Chile into another communist strong hold. He nationalized the copper mines, the trucking companies, he's failed economic systems were bankrupting the country. Milton Friedman's economic ideas were what turned Chile into one of the strongest economic powers in Latin America. And Pinochet murdered those who threatened that balance. He later gave his country democracy. A truly great man.
Lie #1. He worked entirely within the Chile's constitution. The press was never freer under Allende. Never freer.
"who was in been with Castro and was looking to turn Chile into another communist strong hold."
Lie #2. That's the International Communist Conspiracy theory, isn't it JimBob? The great ICC never existed, doofus. Anyone can learn Communism. Go to a library. There were no connections between Allende and Castro. And what if there were? So what?
"He nationalized the copper mines, the trucking companies"
Truth #1. What's wrong with having the proceeds of the sale of Chile's raw materials benefitting Chileans? Oh. I see. Chileans aren't Americans. I get it.
"he's failed economic systems were bankrupting the country."
Lie #2. the economy "failed" because of the CIA intervention which brought the economy to its knees.
Have you been to an optometrist recently? I think you have tunnel vision.
"Milton Friedman's economic ideas were what turned Chile into (a) strong economic power in Latin America."
The economy under Allende was going well until the CIA put the screws to it. During Pinochet's economic turnaround, 1000s were murdered, including some Americans. Nice.
"And Pinochet murdered those who threatened that balance."
Sounds like a rationale for Stalinism!
"He later gave his country democracy. A truly great man."
Ha ha ha ha ha! You're alway good for laugh, ConMan.
"The economy under Allende was going well until the CIA put the screws to it."
Yes, the evil CIA did it. I get it. Do you sleep with foil on your head? They might read your thoughts.
STEALING an entire industry to give it to "the people" is simply organized theft. Believe wha you want, the evidence is there. Allende was a piece of shit and got got. BITCH!
Correct. You want references? I will give them to you.
"Do you sleep with foil on your head?"
No. But you sleep with George Bush's dick up your ass.
"STEALING an entire industry to give it to "the people" is simply organized theft."
It was anything but theft. It was accomplished through legal means. Anaconda Copper had profited far more than what they lost on their investment, & they weren't shut out completely from earning anything.
I'm not sure what "got got" means, but why was Allende a "piece of shit"? Why? You give me some examples of why you say this, and I will provide details of the CIA operation in Chile that was ongoing from Eisenhower to Nixon. I will not only provide details, I will give you references in which you can find the information that I present to you for yourself. I will not reference obscure websites. Mostly gov documents & mainstream newspapers.

Buk hated politics-he laughed at the leftists,ridicueled the "peaceniks",really hated their stupidity. If you think Buk favored the left then you have never really bothered to read much about him or by him. He knew that bad,stupid,evil men were from both sides-but he really felt the left and "liberals" the most inane.

Chew on this, Deat Threat:
The radical Muslim movement in 1990s Algeria eventually fizzled when they began accusing each other of not being "pure" enough Muslims. The movement dwindled to smaller and smaller groups until what was left were lone nuts hiding out in the mountains.
When you write "George Bush is not a true conservative", it sounds vaguely familiar.

The health crisis in this country stems from gov't interference into insurance companies. I guess we would be better off with the UK or Canada's system.

Or maybe Sweden's system,you know the one that nearly bankrupted them in the 90s. I prefer a society that allows people to make their own way,where BUSINESS creates jobs,NOT gov't where the desire for profit benefits all.
RightWingCon81 3 years ago
"The health crisis in this country stems from gov't interference into insurance companies."
Absolutely incorrect. It is the result of letting these corporate entities (ther health care copanies) operate without any controls at all. They deny coverage to anyone they can in any way they can. If you're sick, you CANNOT GET HEALTH COVERAGE! Then, let me ask you, smart fuck apologist, if not to help the sick, JUST WHAT THE FUCKING HELL IS HEALTH CARE FOR?
bapyou 3 years ago
The health care crisis comes from companies that b/c of over regulation offer packaged policies that include unnecessary "benefits" to certain patients.If the gov't stepped back and allowed these companies to offer what is called a"cafeteria style" health care system it could be MUCH more affordable.Healthcare is there to help people,sure,but insurance companies have one TOP priority,and that is PROFIT.God forbid a business is in business for profit and not some charity work.FUCK OFF YOU TWAT!

Tax cuts increase revenue,PERIOD,this is BASIC economics. Reagan repaired the failed Carter economy with tax cuts. It stands to reason that if you allow those who are the most productive to have more money to PRODUCE they will increase jobs and profits.

Allende was an elected tyrant who was in been with Castro and was looking to turn Chile into another communist strong hold. He nationalized the copper mines, the trucking companies, he's failed economic systems were bankrupting the country.

He later gave his country democracy. A truly great man.
