    I would bet that was this guy. Bukowski’s deal was being a sexist, crotchety, debilitating alcoholic. His writing is famous cause he wrote a lot and he writes in a super unique prose that’s somewhere on the poetry spectrum with topics such as betting on horse races and a hard boiled detective that keeps getting distracted by sex and booze.

    Nothing I’ve read from him indicates that he would be a communist. He was just smart enough and ornery enough to see clear truths like this.
