BUKOWSKI ON PARALLEL EARTH

Sometimes I wonder
If Bukowski’s still alive
Somewhere on a parallel world

Where he writes cute poems
About happy rainbows, puppies
And kittens

Whereas
All the politically correct
Poets & haters on that world

Get drunk all day & go
To the racetrack

And they all just keep on hating him

Because
No matter what he writes
Or what he says

Is still more powerful
& real than they can even
Fathom

Upon any

World
