“Even though I write about the human race, the further away from them, ...” — Charles Bukowski Quote

Even though I write about the human race, the further away from them, the better I feel. Two miles is great; two thousand miles is beautiful.

it's so easy to be a poet

I have not worked out my poems with a careful will, falling rather on haphazard and blind formulation of wordage, a more flowing concept, in a hope for a more new and lively path. I do personalize at times, but this only for the grace and elan of the dance.

To not to have entirely wasted one's life seems to be a worthy accomplishment, if only for myself.

Being a playwright of any race is difficult, and Lord knows it gets more difficult the further you get from the middle of the road. I don't know what kind of magic my mojo is working, but it's working.

There's no such thing as saying that we'll ever find the ultimate cause of stuff. We can only work to push our understanding one step further.

I see myself being a father, hopefully a husband, but I'm very gun-shy. The older I get, the further the goalpost.

I toyed with the notion of being an actor, and am so glad that this whim did not go any further.

When you have been lucky enough to move up the ladder, all you see, really, is the slide back down. You don't see the further steps upwards.
