beautiful brokendown bukowski

hey folks, i haven't been in the bloggingest of moods lately. between a trip to the telluride bluegrass festival (holy crap is this town gorgeous), and my folks hanging out with us for awhile, it's just been go-go-go. but i did come across a charles bukowski snippet recently on how to be a good writer, from the poem of the same name, and i wanted to share it with you.

"get a large typewriter
and as the footsteps go up and down
outside your window

hit that thing
hit it hard

make it a heavyweight fight

make it the bull when he first charges in"

wow, i really love that.
