I want so much that is not here and do not know where to go.

Charles Bukowski; The Roominghouse Madrigals

"He wants golfballs and glass walls. I want quiet thunder. Our disappointment sits between us"

I got up and walked back to my roominghouse. The moonlight was bright. My footsteps echoed in the empty street and it sounded as if somebody was following me, I looked around. I was mistaken. I was quite alone.

(Charles Bukowski)

People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.

People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.

—Charles Bukowski, The Roominghouse Madrigals: Early Selected Poems 1946-1966. I never could get much into Bukowski, but when I lived in Germany in the seventies, I kept running into Bukowski's works—in German—and discovered then that this proud Angeleno was actually a German, born in the wine country around Andernach. And when you think about it, there's a great deal of that German solipsism in him.

[violettesiren]

Catprints, dogprints, marks of ancient children have made the paths we follow

to the vestibule, piled with overshoes, ownerless letters a wooden sled.

The threadbare treads on the stairs. The trails worn by alien feet

in time through the forest snowdrifts of the corridor to this remnant, this discarded door

What disturbs me in the bathroom is the unclaimed toothbrush.

In the room itself, none of the furniture is mine.

The plates are on the table to weight it down.

I call you sometimes To make sure you are still there.

Tomorrow, when you come to dinner They will tell you I never lived here.

My window is a funnel for the shapes of chaos

In the backyard, frozen bones, the childrens' voices, derelict objects

Inside, the wall buckles; the pressure

balanced by this clear small silence.

We must resist. We must refuse to disappear

I said, in exile survival is the first necessity.

After that (I say this tentatively) we might begin

Survive what? you said.

In the weak light you looked over your shoulder. You said

Nobody ever survives.

Roominghouse, Winter by Margaret Atwood

[xray-vex]

the genius of the crowd

the first time i heard this poem, i couldn't stop thinking about it

and haven't been able to stop thinking about it since.

There is enough treachery, hatred, violence, Absurdity in the average human being To supply any given army on any given day.

AND The Best At Murder Are Those Who Preach Against It. And The Best At Hate Are Those Who Preach LOVE AND THE BEST AT WAR --FINALLY--ARE THOSE WHO PREACH PEACE

Those Who Preach GOD NEED God Those Who Preach PEACE Do Not Have Peace. THOSE WHO PREACH LOVE DO NOT HAVE LOVE BEWARE THE PREACHERS Beware The Knowers. Beware Those Who Are ALWAYS READING BOOKS

Beware Those Who Either Detest Poverty Or Are Proud Of It

BEWARE Those Quick To Praise For They Need PRAISE In Return

BEWARE Those Who Are Quick To Censure: They Are Afraid Of What They Do Not Know

Beware Those Who Seek Constant Crowds; They Are Nothing Alone Beware The Average Man The Average Woman BEWARE Their Love

Their Love Is Average, Seeks Average But There Is Genius In Their Hatred There Is Enough Genius In Their Hatred To Kill You, To Kill Anybody.

Not Wanting Solitude Not Understanding Solitude They Will Attempt To Destroy Anything That Differs From Their Own Not Being Able To Create Art They Will Not Understand Art

They Will Consider Their Failure As Creators Only As A Failure Of The World

Not Being Able To Love Fully They Will BELIEVE Your Love Incomplete AND THEN THEY WILL HATE YOU

And Their Hatred Will Be Perfect

Like A Shining Diamond Like A Knife Like A Mountain LIKE A TIGER LIKE Hemlock Their Finest ART
