“there is a loneliness in this world so great
that you can see it in the slow movement of
the hands of a clock.

one on one.

the poor are not good to the poor.

that we can all be
big-ass winners.

or the suicides.

aching in one place
alone

untouched
unspoken to

watering a plant.”
― Charles Bukowski, Love Is a Dog from Hell
