joe the poet

by Scot Young

everyone wants to
drink like bukowski
fuck like bukowski
write like bukowski
everyone wants to walk
in bukowski's shadow
taking the same steps
like marcel marceau
trapped inside a glass box

drinking wine by the case
nicotine stained fingers
hunt and peck on a
used underwood
but
listening to mozart
getting a blow job
from last night's hooker
while scratching yr ass
in dirty shorts
doesn't mean
you can ever
write like bukowski
