who said, “you’ve kept me going for two
years, it’s really amazing to meet you.”“thank you,” i answered, “but who’s
going to keep me going?”i’ve asked this question before and
all i ever get back is a gentle

they have no notion that i may consider
suicide several times a
week.they’ve read some of my books
and that’s enough for
them.but i only write that stuff,
i can’t read
it.Betting on the Muse - Charles Bukowki
