Hello Other Bukowski Fans
I wonder what he would of thought of us. It's too dreadful to contemplate really. I don't care though because I think of him and I write. He's like my newspaper in the loo. I love reading his work. My friends dig it too. We read his poems at parties or just after dinner. Sometimes he makes me feel sick or sad and sometimes he shocks me and sometimes he makes me just feel like telling him hey dude you were pretty damn fine. I am happy there's all this posthumous stuff being published and I love the work he wrote when he was getting older and richer and mellowing. Must've been that jacuzzi. I dig the fact that he didn't stop writing just because he was a success. That made an arse out of a lot of people out there insisting artists have to do the barfly and drop dead thing to be the genuine article. He was bloody hero. He should've been knighted.

It's about Joburg and the suburb where I live and other things going down all over the world like bureaucrats.
