    Being Charles Bukowski

    We can try.

    Alright, we probably won't be as good as the real Bukowski, but we can give it a shot.

    Here is mine.

    ==============================================

    KINKY

    I know someone
    Who stores her socks
    Inside her refridgerator
    Because she likes the cold feeling on her feet.

    One night I asked her
    Does she also like it on other parts of her body
    And she said
    Go, if you want, to the refridgerator,
    All you'll find is socks.

    Later when I wanted a beer,
    I wondered what happened to old-fashioned girls.
    Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine...

    Why try to be Bukowski?
    What's wrong with DocHeart.
    This is good, seems to me.

    Oho, Bukowski would certainly mistake it for his. How many Modiglianis were there? I know a guy in Stambul who paints Van Goghs, Matisses and actually anything one fancies to order from him (the average price for a piece is 200 dollars these days! just imagine, a 200 dollars Dali's Watch)... I would LOVE to read an original DocHeart, though the present well achieved effort, however bukowskian, is an exciting prelude to Doc... so I feel, and thanks and best - Bar

    When

    When she tore the skin off my skull
    By smashing it with her purse
    And I saw three floors and four ceilings
    I felt she loved me
    For the first time.
    Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine...
