I really like that poem. It’s so true. This last year I’ve never been more busy or more stressed in my life and yet I’ve also written the most I ever have.
And now that I publish biweekly instead of weekly I’m finding that I don’t publish content that is twice as good. I just spend them extra time doing other stuff that’s not as important...
Okay, I don’t think you mentioned you were going to do your own version of Bukowski, I thought you were just going to simply share his poem. I’m obsessed with this! Reading it made me so happy. I’ll never be able to read this poem again without thinking about your version now. More poetry from Oscar, please.
[Also, I obviously can’t help but hear Isaac Brock’s voice singing in my head !!!!!]
I love the idea of using that line as a mantra. It’s a perfect one. I actually have a kind of similar thing, but I don’t know if I’ve told you before. 👀
& thank you for sharing that weird Bobby Fingers video. It reminded me and reinforced the need [and desire] to make more weird things [together, too] and that is perfect timing.
I LOVE that you're sharing this Bukowski poem. It's always lit a fire under me. But I'd never thought of modifying it to more squarely guide my own inspiration in the context of my personal life circumstance. What a bold and beautiful use of his supercharged poetry.

Can’t wait to see the film!
Oscar! I'm glad you are doing the microfilm. You are doing it man! Excited to see what you learn and how you feel once the project is all done.

Give the people all the microfilm updates!
Abrazos abrazos abrazos
Bellissimo, Oscar.

Love this Oscar. Such a neat idea to contextualize a poem that’s had meaning to you to your own life experience!
Thank you for writing & sharing this :)
Buenas suerte, mi amigo.
