Charles Bukowski
we had such tremendous fun and much agony together for some years
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
Well, the rain had stopped but the pain was still there.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
I don't like jail, they got the wrong kind of bars in there.
Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski
Sometimes I get too exhausted to even feel bad
Charles Bukowski
What? You’d dare drink right after getting out of jail for intoxication?” That’s when you need a drink the most.
Charles Bukowski
Of course, there would always be arguments. That is the nature of Woman. They like the mutual exchange of dirty laundry, a bit of screaming, a bit of dramatics. Then an exchange of vows.
Charles Bukowski
I think that the world should be full of cats and full of rain, that's all, just cats and rain, rain and cats, very nice, good night.
Charles Bukowski
Lighting new cigarettes, pouring more drinks. It has been a beautiful fight. Still is.
Charles Bukowski
We waste days like mad blackbirds and pray for alcoholic nightsour silk-sick human smiles wrap around us like somebody else's confetti
