The Spirit That Moves Us, another horse poem for all my many dear friends...

[Digney in Burnaby]

This is how it appeared in The Spirit That Moves Us Reader: 7th Anniversary Anthology (1982). (Offered to subscribers of the journal as TSTMU volume 6 numbers 2 and 3.) Orginally in TSTMU volume 6 number one.

Damn.

 

[Erik]

I second that.
They just never stop appearing!

 

[David]

Terrific, thanks.

If Bukowski had posted that on the Internet, here's what the responses would have looked like:

"Obviously you're unhappy and that's why you're lashing out at people."
"Easy for you to say this kind of shit from your parents basement. You wouldn't say it to anyone's face."
"Jesus, calm down! Your life must suck to post crap like this! Sucks to be you!"
"why u so mad, bro?"​
