As The Poems Go Poem by Charles Bukowski
As The Poems Go
As the poems go into the thousands you
realize that you've created very
little.
it comes down to the rain, the sunlight,
the traffic, the nights and the days of the
years, the faces.
leaving this will be easier than living
it, typing one more line now as
a man plays a piano through the radio,
the best writers have said very
little
and the worst,
far too much.
I read this alot, its inspiring. A mad genius indeed. I might even get this tattoed on my arm.
i love the big bukowski.... you can't call the man a lier!
'the best writers have said very little and the worst, far too much'
'the best writers have said very little and the worst, far too much.' - True! At the same time may I say, those who are meagrely-worded in speech, can be eloquently fluent in their writings. The vice-versa is also true. Often the verbose speeches are misleading; the writings, seldom!
...the best writers have said very little and the worst, far too much......... laden vessel sounds not empty vessel sounds much
