Favorite line from Buk?

A poem with a nice rhythm: A killer gets ready (Play The Piano...)
The narrator, Bukowski, met a marine in a train but I didn't like him
Towards the end:

he got off at Pasadena
vainer than any woman
he got off at Pasadena
proud and
dead
 
"When the wine ran out the depression, the fear, the uselessness of going on became too much and I knew I was going to do it."

(was one of my favorites since age 17)
