Poem at the Beginning of Bellevue Footage

[BicycleTragedy]

Who can tell me what he is reading from at the outset of the 'Bukowski at Bellevue' video, from around 1970? The one where he mentions the deaths of Kerouac and Cassady and says, "There's no stopping this thing"...?

Thanks in advance

The one you had been interested in is an unpublished poem called Eighteen (one of the so called Excerpts from 'Short Non-Moon Shots to Nowhere').
If you think I made all this up ask the Database or, better yet, check here.

I'm just picking the low-hanging fruit, (unfortunately) there's plenty more stuff on this tree.
