About
Charles Bukowski
Charles Bukowski (16 August 1920 – 9 March 1994) was a Los Angeles, California poet and novelist sometimes mistakenly associated with Beat Generation writers because of alleged similarities of style and attitude. Bukowski's writing was heavily influenced by the geography and atmosphere of his home city of Los Angeles. He wrote more than fifty books and countless smaller pieces. He is often mentioned as an influence by contemporary authors and his style is frequently imitated.
and when love came to us twice and lied to us twice we decided to never love again that was fair fair to us and fair to love itself.
we ask for no mercy or no miracles; we are strong enough to live and to die and to kill flies,
attend the boxing matches, go to the racetrack, live on luck and skill, get alone, get alone often, and if you can't sleep alone be careful of the words you speak in your sleep; and ask for no mercy no miracles;
and don't forget: time is meant to be wasted, love fails and death is useless.
It's 4:30 in the morning, it's always 4:30 in the morning.
There are times when those eyes inside your brain stare back at you.
