i like him. do you?


cows in art class

good weather is like good women-
it doesn't always happen
and when it does
it doesn't always last.

man is more stable:
if he's bad
there's more chance he'll stay that way,
or if he's good
he might hang on,

but a woman is changed by
children
age
diet
conversation
sex
the moon
the absence or presence of sun
or good times.

a woman must be nursed into subsistence
by love
where a man can become stronger
by being hate.

a poem by Charles Bukowski.
