Charles Bukowski - Luck

once
we were young
at this
machine. . .
drinking
smoking
typing
it was a most 
splendid
miraculous
time
still
is
only now
instead of
moving toward
time
it 
moves toward 
us
makes each word 
drill 
into the
paper
clear
fast
hard
feeding a
closing
space.

Luck - Comments and Information
Poet: Charles Bukowski Poem: Luck Comment 2 of 2, added on November 27th, 2005 at 5:38 PM. Learn Reading Stephen and start thinking about the words... an you might catch a glimpse of the thoughts! Often I read poems an think if the author thought a second about his words... but Charles Bukowski is able to put some ideas in most ordinary words and weird forms... and I've never been more sure, that he knew what we wrote!

Who would waste time publishing this garbage... this is the downfall to internet being free speach, crack heads like you can post inconsequential garbage. stephen jansen from Canada More Comments >> Are you looking for more information on this poem?
