Charles Bukowski probably said (or wrote)
That we are here to laugh at the odds.
I’d say it all depends. Listening to a rich
New Englander (Martha’s Vineyard)
Pontificate upon the miniaturist artists
Of the Renaissance in the ever-so well
Known salons of Venice or Florence
(Such pale shadows of the British Imperialist
Tomb raiders of the nineteenth century).
These daughters of these rich families
Make a statement on the labour of artists.
The Situationist would say this: the greatest
Work of art is the secured tenancy. The second
Is the factory. Regular money that set us free.To disagree.
