At least Bukowski got applause at his readings. Most poetry events now are silent at the end of each reading, because the audience is too afraid and too self conscious and too terrified of standing out.

The genius thing is that there is not a vicious edge to him. He was the kind of guy who would turn his hate onto himself and his body. He lived to be 74! That's really something! He was such an astute observor. I just love him more and more as I get older!

I always smile when somebody talks shit about Bukowski in a setting such as this, because it shows the power of his words. You can just sense that guys like Dave down there are not the sort of people that Bukowski would enjoy having around unless he was looking to scuffle. He would not only, not like them, but he would not even waste time thinking about them, talking about them, or writing about them unless he was getting paid for it. Yet people who apparently hate the man will go watch videos posted by his fans, and then write nasty comments about him and the people who love him. And I have to say, we are lucky to have guys like Dave Frazier, because they ensure that Bukowski will never die.

I agree, but their hate doesn't contribute to anything. It's just a fart in the wind- a byproduct of what goes on inside them. They feel compelled to push it out once in a while for the rest of us to smell, but the wind is against them. They're sad.

"EARTHQUAKE"...I SAW THIS POEM TODAY on MEMORIAL DAY 2017 Americans don't know what tragedy is a little 6.5 earthquake can set them to chattering like monkeys a piece of chinaware broken, the Union Rescue Mission falls down 6 a.m. they sit in their cars they're all driving around where are they going? a little excitement has broken into their canned lives stranger stands next to stranger chattering gibberish fear anxious fear anxious laughter ... my baby, my flowerpots, my ceiling my bank account this is just a tickler a feather and they can't bear it ... suppose they bombed the city as other cities have been bombed not with an a-bomb but with ordinary blockbusters day after day, every day as has happened in other cities of the world? if the rest of the world could see you today their laughter would bring the sun to its knees and even the flowers would leap from the ground like bulldogs and chase you away to where you belong wherever that is, and who cares where it is as long as it's somewhere away from here.

bukowski's not bad, but he's so basic. if youve never read poetry and read his stuff, your mind would be blown. but ive read hundreds of poets and i read his stuff and i wonder, is that all their is? ive read one of his novels, women. the only reason why i finished it was like watching a train wreck. i just wanted to see what happened next. at least bukowski lived the life he wrote about. a lot of poets are posers
@smythe555

Bukowski's school of poets are like jazz musicians. Both tell semi-improvised stories. Some choose a lot of notes and a lot of pyrotechnics, some prefer a more minimalist approach. Minimalism does not necessarily make Bukowski "basic", rather, it gives him a crucial mechanism for getting to the most core essence of the story. It gives him a unique thrust and vitality, which separates him powerfully from many other poets of his era, or ours.
