Charles Bukowski writes plainly about gambling, drinking, and women. Burning in Water Drowning in Flame humanizes the intricacies of collective desire and addiction.
Excerpt
The race
stopped by a red light
as if time were no problem,
and they come up to you:
a car full of young,
laughing,
and you watch them go
until
somebody behind you honks
and you are shaken back
into what is left
of your life.
