the poet's muse
av Charles Bukowski

there was one
made a thousand dollars
one day
in a town larger than
El Paso
jumping taxies between
universities and ladies'
clubs.

hell, you can't blame him:
I've worked for $16 a week,
quit, and lived a month on
that.

his wife is suing for divorce
and wants $200 a week
alimony.

he has to stay famous and
keep
talking.

I see his work
everywhere.
