Bukowski* Poems from "Love Is A Dog from Hell"

how to be a great writer

red up and down

girls in pantyhose

the girl on the bus stop bench

how come you're not unlisted?

the insane always loved me

the worst and the best

beach trip

the beautiful young girl walking past the graveyard--

the girls at the green hotel

now, if you were teaching creative

* One of the greatest American poets... One who brought poetry down from its rotting Academic pedestal down to the people. Bukowski worked most of his life in menial factory, butcher or postal jobs and received wide renown only until he was 55. Strongly detesting the "Disneyfication" of the world, he called Mickey Mouse "A three-fingered fuck with no soul".
