"If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives, jobs, and maybe your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery, isolation. Isolation is the gift."
Read this book whilst locked up in the clink.... laughed my ass off!!!! The part where he gets sucked off by the fat hooker in the " green tent" made me piss myself. Great read.
you fuckin slags what the fuck is this censorship do you not understand the man at all fuck your mothers fathers and all unfortunate beings of your silly race. all hail the poet who saves your worthless soul and delivers you to humanity. lets die with some coin in our pockets!!!
"My beerdrunk Soul is Sadder Than All The Dead Christmas Trees of The World" WoW ! what a Great Movie! i agree ; best role Matt Dillion ever played ! ! i
yeah-- this is a gorgeous piece of writing, for sure.
if you like matt dillon "doing" writers, check out his track from the jack kerouac tribute CD-- he reads a piece from Mexico City Blues with 3 mexican jazz musicians, and it's pretty awesome.
Sorry, got the name of the poem wrong. "Born into this" is the name of the actual documentary. "Dinosauria, we" is the name of the poem. Doesn't matter which name you choose to search for. It's found with both names on youtoube.
Agreed. The piano music and the ending poem with the stripper is true poetry, true art. Keep thinking about this scene in good and bad times. Truly amazing.
great movie and a great poet. thanks man for this. its is good that these stuff are not viewed much in youtube. it is much better to be viewed with few people who really understand bukowski. thanks again for uploading

Make sure to check out the poem "Born into this". That's poetry.

i logged on to you tube wondering, whether anyone would have been as moved as I was and put this final scene up.
Thank you. My favorite poem from my favorite poet.

Does anyone know who performed that Piano tune, and where I can get that? I think it isn't on the Soundtrack.

Slow day is such a bautiful song, it's unbelieveble that Kristin Asbjornsen is so relativ unknown.
