I have been told I wallow too much in my head to live with others in the conventional mental society. I've been frivolous with skin and men and time and the whole idea of life.
you were one of the best female poets and I told the publishers, editors, “ Her, print her, she’s mad but she’s magic, there’s no lie in her fire.” I loved you like a man loves a woman he never touches, only writes to, keeps little photographs of. I would have loved you more if I had sat in a small room rolling a cigarette and listened to you piss in the bathroom, but that didn’t happen. - Charles Bukowski, from An Almost Made Up Poem

I may be depressed, and many times like this, I have plodded on into the night trailing into the morning with music in my ears and tears in my heart and a blade in my hand.
