she was in love with bukowski
so she wrote him a poem
and poured another glass
while rain was flooding her thoughts
and nobody really cared
not even bukowski
who did not even stir
down in his grave
people are boring
he would have told her
women are predictable
same hair dos and make up and shoes
wherever you turn
same nagging and flip flops and scarfs everywhere
but she wouldn’t listen
she went to the off license
poured another glass
and wrote another poem
to bukowski
who she was in love with
just like I was..

My dear, why do you write in past tense? guess you ARE still in love with Bukowski... Pour a glass of wine for me, too! I love these lines: ”...and poured another glass
while rain was flooding her thoughts
and nobody really cared...”
...when we write in past tense the present seems like the future..and when nobody really cares we keep writing...x
how bizarre!
