The Seminar - Prism International vol. 6 No 3 1967

[Days runaway]

Recently purchased this and I believe it's the longest poem Buk ever published? Hope you enjoy.

 

[Johannes]

This was never my favorite Bukowski poem but some lines in there are funny as shit.

I wonder what Magaret Atwood thought about "The Seminar".

Nah, it's shorter than WW 2 (from Mockingbird Wish Me Luck).
And he must've made a bigger one than that.

 

[mjp]

I removed a lot of the images because aside from the name at the end of the poem (which you can see above), it's the same as the version in days run away.

 

[Bukfan]

Which poem in days run away are you guys talking about? I don't see it mentioned in the thread.

 

[mjp]

"The Seminar"

 

[Bukfan]

Oops...sorry! :oops:

 

[the only good poet]

Johannes is obviously on Bukfan's 'ignore list'. Either that, or we need a larger font.

 

[zobraks]

No conspiracy here and Bukfan doesn't need to visit his ophthalmologist.
I think Johannes edited his post and inserted the title of the poem after mjp had deleted the pictures of the poem (where its name was clear for everyone to see it).

At least I don't remember seeing the title written in Johannes's post.

 

[the only good poet]

Nice of you to clear that up.

 

[Johannes]

I didn't want to bring that up, but Bukfan and I hate each other. He knows, what I am talking about. It's about a woman.

Seriously, I didn't edit anything as far as I can remember.

But here I am and here is the title of the poem:

The Seminar

:D

 

[the only good poet]

Well, the cat is most surely out of the bag. I hope you two can resolve things. Clear the air. She's not worth it.

I believe it's Days runaway who have added The Seminar as part of thread's title after I asked about the title, but I could be mistaken (again). Now, what was the title of that poem again? :D

Right, but I did win your sister fair and square. It's not my fault you're a bad poker player.
