Poetry Quote by Charles Bukowski — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“there is a place in the heart that”

“as long as there are”

“Find what you love and let it kill you.”

“Yes Yes”

“girls”

“All right, God, say that You are really there. You have put me in this fix. You want to test me. Suppose I test You? Suppose I say that You are not there? You've given me a supreme test with my parents and with these boils. I think that I have passed Your test. I am tougher than You. If You will come down here right now, I will spit into Your face, if You have a face. And do You shit? The priest never answered that question. He told us not to doubt. Doubt what? I think that You have been picking on me too much so I am asking You to come down here so I can put You to the test! I waited. Nothing. I waited for God. I waited and waited. I believe I slept.”

“The aching in my chest”

“Women Are Not Roses”

“Gretel in Darkness:”

“you”

“When it is bad…”

“Poetry that emerges from a poet’s mind becomes complete only when it enters into the reader’s sphere of comprehension.”
