An Insight by Luke Cowling.
Charles Bukowski is my favorite poet. He's everything that appeals to me in a writer, in fact.
He's self depreciating, humorous, dark, insightful, crass and unapologetic. His work has been criticised for being lowbrow, but so be it, I enjoy his poetry regardless.
As such I decided I might share of my favourite Bukowski pieces, some of his more macabre work if you will, as these are the one's that I tend to resonate more with. Though please do not think me ignorant to his crude assessments of the human condition, in attempts of humour. I just enjoy his darker works more than those.
I believe his widow made much of his library available to the public, though I don't remember how or why. A PDF of much of his poetry can be found Here.
Anyway, here are some of my personal favourites:
