I discovered Bukowski a few years a go and it was like a revelation to me. This guy is so chocking that everything he say become poetry, there’s a fantastic lyricism in his poetry and novels. I read them all, in a few month and always kept in mind this novel by Kerouac The Dharma Bums, that define him perfectly.

You don’t try. That’s very important: not to try, either for Cadillacs, creation or immortality. You wait, and if nothing happens, you wait some more. It’s like a bug high on the wall. You wait for it to come to you. When it gets close enough you reach out, slap out and kill it. Or if you like its looks, you make a pet out of it… Charles Bukowski I created an image of that old bastard of a genius named Buk… it’s coming…

The term socialization is used by sociologists, social psychologists and educationalists to refer to the process of learning one’s culture and how to live within it. For the individual it provides the skills and habits necessary for acting and participating within their society. For the society, inducting all individual members into its moral norms, attitudes, values, motives, social roles, language and symbols is the ‘means by which social and cultural continuity are attained’ My Direct Socialization motifes is all about the “direct” part of socialization.

A few years ago I painted two large canvasses. Both were titled “Bluebird”. I have been reading Charles Bukowski again lately and just thought I would post these works alongside of his amazing poem “Bluebird”. / It was published in Bukowski’s book “The Last Night of the Earth Poems” circa 1992 and an audio of the poet himself reading it can be found here Here’s the bittersweet but beautiful poem from Bukowski: there’s a bluebird in my heart that / wants to get out / but I’m too tough for him, / I say, stay in there, I’m not going / to let anybody see / you. there’s a bluebird in my heart that / wants to get out / but I pour whiskey on him and inhale / cigarette smoke / and the whores and the bartenders / and the grocery clerks / never know that / he’s / in there. there’s a bluebird in my heart that / wants to get out / but I’m too tough for him, / I say, / stay down, do you want to mess / me up? / you want to screw up the / works? / you want to blow my book sales in / Europe? there’s a bluebird in my heart that / wants to get out / but I’m too clever, I only let him out / at night sometimes / when everybody’s asleep. / I say, I know that you’re there, / so don’t be / sad. / then I put him back, / but he’s singing a little / in there, I haven’t quite let him / die / and we sleep together like / that / with our / secret pact / and it’s nice enough to / make a man / weep, but I don’t / weep, do / you?

by Charles Bukowski if it doesn’t come bursting out of you / in spite of everything, / don’t do it. / unless it comes unasked out of your / heart and your mind and your mouth / and your gut, / don’t do it. / if you have to sit for hours / staring at your computer screen / or hunched over your / typewriter / searching for words, / don’t do it. / if you’re doing it for money or / fame, / don’t do it. / if you’re doing it because you want / women in your bed, / don’t do it. / if you have to sit there and / rewrite it again and again, / don’t do it. / if it’s hard work just thinking about doing it, / don’t do it. / if you’re trying to write like somebody / else, / forget about it. / if you have to wait for it to roar out of / you, / then wait patiently. / if it never does roar out of you, / do something else. if you first have to read it to your wife / or your girlfriend or your boyfriend / or your parents or to anybody at all, / you’re not ready. don’t be like so many writers, / don’t be like so many thousands of / people who call themselves writers, / don’t be dull and boring and / pretentious, don’t be consumed with self- / love. / the libraries of the world have / yawned themselves to / sleep / over your kind. / don’t add to that. / don’t do it. / unless it comes out of / your soul like a rocket, / unless being still would / drive you to madness or / suicide or murder, / don’t do it. / unless the sun inside you is / burning your gut, / don’t do it. when it is truly time, / and if you have been chosen, / it will do it by / itself and it will keep on doing it / until you die or it dies in you. there is no other way. and there never was.
