Aforisma


"Seppellitemi vicino all'ippodromo così che possa sentire l'ebbrezza della volata finale".
Vi regalo questa poesia.
the star
Charles Bukowski
I was drunk and they
got me out of my car
put the bracelets on
and made me lay dow
non the roadway
in the rain.
they stood in their
yellow raincoats
cops from 3
squadcars.
the water soaked
into my clothing.
I looked up
at the moon through
the raindrops,
thinking,
here I am
62 years old
and being
protected
from myself
again.
earlier that night
I had attended the
opening
of a movie
which portrayed the
life of a drunken
poet:
me.
this then was
my critical review
of their
effort.
