[QUOTE="Tokyo Joe, post: 453642, member: 9090"] Bump. Only a handful of Bukowski's poems ever truly moved me, but this one has a shine and strikes me as fitting for the RVFer -- who you might say is almost defined by his commitment to beating the death-in-life. (Youtube clip of a recitation by Tom Waits follows the text.) The Laughing Heart your life is your life don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission. be on the watch. there are ways out. there is a light somewhere. it may not be much light but it beats the darkness. be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances. know them. take them. you can’t beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes. and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. your life is your life. know it while you have it. you are marvelous the gods wait to delight in you.
