Panda Sex with Charles Bukowski



the words have come and gone,
I sit ill.
the phone rings, the cats sleep.
Linda vacuums.
I am waiting to live,
waiting to die.

Somebody still knows who Charles Bukowski is?

And if someone did, would they fix or amend the fixed and amended Bukowski's that show up here from time to time with the frequency of Panda Sex?

This one is missing the second half along with the title, "So Now?".

...I wish I could ring in some bravery.
it's a lousy fix
but the tree outside doesn't know:
I watch it moving with the wind
in the late afternoon sun.
there's nothing to declare here,
just a waiting.
each faces it alone.
Oh, I was once young,
Oh, I was once unbelievably
young!
