Just wanted to share this terrific poem by iconic poet Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) Ex postal worker , alcoholic w a gift . He was different , he wrote about the struggling person - Dead end jobs , person , gamblers , addicts in a manner that was blunt and honest .
The Laughing Heart
Your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission
be on the watch , there are ways out .
there is light somewhere , it may not be much light but it beats the darkness .
be on the watch , the gods will offer you chances , know them . take them
you can’t beat death but you can beat death in life sometimes and the more often you learn to do it the more often you will learn how to do it.
the more light there will be, your life is your life , know it while you have it .
you are marvelous, the gods wait to delight in you.
