is it Bukowski? or the dude from The National?

[hoochmonkey9]

the Decider from Milwaukee has a 'who said it?' quiz.

no wagering, please.

 

[Bukfan]

No. 3, 8 and 19 are definitely Bukowski...

 

[hoochmonkey9]

did you wager? because, if you recall, I said no wagering.

 

[Purple Stickpin]

#12 seems a possibility, but if I had a gun to my head, I'd say no. What Bukfan said. And I don't wager, I bet.

 

[hoochmonkey9]

betting is fine.

but no wagering, motherfuckers. you heard me.

Nope, I did'nt wager. I only indulged in a little betting (...on the muse). :p

I vaguely remember reading Buk's "Rhyming poem" in an early issue of Wormwood, or maybe on a flyer from Wormwood. Am I deluded?

 

[bospress.net]

it was probably from Wormwood, but not from the flier, which was the poem "Same Old Thing Shakespeare Through Mailer".

It was originally in Wormwood, then in All's Normal Here.

Wow, nine out of twenty was Bukowski! Who would have thunk it was that many...
