Bukowski quotes on life, death, love, writing....
paper and people.

“yes, other people don’t seem to have this problem with

PAPER PAPER PAPER gathering everywhere,

stacked upon itself,

and when people come to visit and shoot my hours through the head

they offer nothing interesting or constructive.

I find myself resenting them and

their chatter

their idle ways

since I am always fighting for each minute, 

a minute to straighten this out or that out

and as I sit with them and their chatter,

as all the minutes are murdered,

I find that they themselves are like ACCUMULATED PAPER

you have to get rid of them

before they overwhelm and smother you.

am I the only one with this problem?

PAPER and PEOPLE, such a waste,

such a terrible waste.”
