Poetry.

So i now have this new interest in Charles Bukowski poems. To celebrate my finding of this great art that I have been missing out on for far to long.. I'm gunna post poems a lil more frequently now.

"Cows In Art Class"

good weather
is like
good women-
it doesn't always happen
and when it does
it doesn't
always last.
man is
more stable:
if he's bad
there's more chance
he'll stay that way,
or if he's good
he might hang
on,
but a woman
is changed
by
children
age
diet
conversation
sex
the moon
the absence or
presence of sun
or good times.
a woman must be nursed
into subsistence
by love
where a man can become
stronger
by being hated.


-Charles Bukowski.
