"Censorship is the tool of those who have the need to hide actualities from themselves and from others. Their fear is only their inability to face what is real, and I can’t vent any anger against them. I only feel this appalling sadness. Somewhere, in their upbringing, they were shielded against the total facts of our existence. They were only taught to look one way when many ways exist."

Bukowski’s letter to a library that banned his books – Boing Boing

Finish - Poem by Charles Bukowski

We are like roses that have never bothered to bloom

when we should have bloomed and

it is as if

the sun has become disgusted with

waiting

"Boring damned people. All over the earth. Propagating more boring damned people. What a horror show. The earth swarmed with them."

"I was drawn to all the wrong things: I liked to drink, I was lazy, I didn’t have a god, politics, ideas, ideals. I was settled into nothingness; a kind of non-being, and I accepted it. I didn’t make for an interesting person. I didn’t want to be interesting, it was too hard. What I really wanted was only a soft, hazy space to live in, and to be left alone."
