Any cool quotes that you like by this dude from RL? Fan of this author's work.

A cool part of being alive during this era is that before I die I'll be able to ask an AI hologram version of Bukowski (the literary giant) why he hasn't written any books lately. I think he'll like that question. He'll give me a brand new way of looking at the silliness of reality that we are all involved in. All created by an AI version of him via a large language model of his current work posthumously. Can't wait.

Great art might live longer that we do.

Sorry for the slow reply. I commented on this thread thinking it was silly, and not intending to ever look at it again. Then saw in an email you replied to me. I was just about to go to sleep, and I'm not 100% sure what you mean by "RL" - but I do have quite a few Bukowski quotes I enjoy (lines/phrases from poems, etc).

Admittedly, when I was really into Bukowski it was quite some years ago..so I'm not entirely sure they all mean to me what they did back then.

Some of my favorite lines of his are not necessarily his most popular musings about the state of humanity or people. I really enjoyed the way he could instill a certain slice of life into the endings of his poems, just very human moments.

"later we joked about the lotion
and the cigarette and the apple.
then I went out and got some chicken
and shrimp and french fries and buns
and mashed potatoes and gravy and
cole slaw,and we ate.she told me
how good she felt and I told her
how good I felt and we
ate the chicken and the shrimp and the
french fries and the buns and the
mashed potatoes and the gravy and
the cole slaw too."
