Inspirational people - Charles Bukowski

“Alone with everybody"

The flesh covers the bone

and they put a mind

in there and

sometimes a soul,

and the women break

vases against the walls

and the men drink too much

and nobody finds the one

but they keep looking

crawling in and out

of beds.

flesh covers

the bone and the

flesh searches

for more than

flesh.

there's no chance at all:

we are all trapped

by a singular fate.

nobody ever finds

the one.

the city dumps fill

the junkyards fill

the madhouses fill

the hospitals fill

the graveyards fill

nothing else

fills.”

Charles Bukowski, Love is a Dog from Hell

Sometimes II

Sometimes...

 you want to make words your friends,

but you want that so badly 
that you try to make slaves from words, 

to force them to do what you imagine.

Sometimes I

Sometimes…

there isn’t worse enemy than chances. meanwhile you don’t have the chance of doing something, there is nothing to worry about, you can blame any little thing that is preventing you to not achieving success, feel happiness, enjoy living. 

This is the reason of our love for our ballast. Our ballast allows us to be innocent of any charge of cowardly, to discover directly the real guilty, the true criminal of our failure, never ourselves;  family, friends, money, lovers, time, cruelty world…

We never have time for doing what we really want, our dear ballast demands us to much. We’ve never get enough money while we are spending our energy in all these expensive things.

The fear of being free from it is not because of the fear of flying, but the fear to stay in ground at the moment you have ride off your plummet. 

When there is no more excuses, the only one guilty appears now, but you don’t like your own name in that position, so you look around, desperate, searching for any heavy load that could bury you in earth. Being buried alive is much better than the chance of not being able to fly.

But, what if at the end everything is just about being afraid of flying?

“To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change, grow, live, and love.”

- Leo Buscaglia

Creativity

"You are in an ecstatic state to such a point that you feel as though you almost don't exist. I have experienced this time and again. My hand seems devoid of myself, and I have nothing to do with what is happening. I just sit there watching it in a state of awe and wonderment, and just flows out of itself"

- "Flow" - Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
