Henry Charles Bukowski was an American poet, novelist, and short-story writer. Bukowski’s writing was heavily influenced by the geography and atmosphere of his home city of Los Angeles and is marked by an emphasis on the ordinary lives of poor Americans, the act of writing, alcohol, relationships with women, and the drudgery of work. A prolific author, Bukowski wrote thousands of poems, hundreds of short stories, and six novels, eventually having over 60 books in print.
the best often die by their own hand
just to get away,
and those left behind
can never quite understand
why anybody
would ever want to
get away
from
them
This poem explores the tragedy of suicide, suggesting that the most talented individuals often succumb to their own despair. The poem's brevity and blunt language convey a sense of desperation and futility.
