Charles Bukowski

My Dear Love;

Charles Bukowski

A Terrible Need:

Some people simply search out unhappiness,

they'll scrounge it out in any given situation

taking any whim

any simple error

and then becoming hateful

vengeful.

don't they realize that

there's so little time?

and to mutilate it like this....

there's never

ever

any way

to recover

all that was

WASTED

There is enough treachery, hatred, violence

Absurdity in the average human being

To supply any given army on any given day.

And the best at murder are those who preach against it.

And the best at hate are those who preach love

And the best at war - finally - are those who preach peace
