the best often die by their own hand
just to get away,
and those left behind
can never quite understand
why anybody
would ever want to
get away
from
them

and the question of can/can't be considered a poem is ever so much beside the point.

you're right - where is the line between writing about pedophilia and writing poetry.

wait, i take that back. i guess even perverts/pedophiles can be poets too. whether they are good/i like them or not isn't the point. i guess, i guess. it is too early in the morning.

if bukowski wanted to have sex with bus tailpipes, you'd forgive him being a good poet. and he wants to fuck little girls, so what? that doesn't mean he fucks them.

listen, i'm not even going to touch that statement because i don't want to fight or argue with you over something as trivial as a poet/poem. also maybe the fact that he is dead and it no longer matters should shut me up anyway.

oh for god's sake, don't be so lame. let me covert you into a paedophile! at your age, you'll be barely legal, paedophile.
