After Many Nights

DATE: May 18, 2008   PHOTOGRAPHER: Cherry

ARCHIE SAYS: “This set was sort of inspired by a great poet named Charles bukowski (if you haven't heard of his work, PLEASE check it out, it's brilliant.) with a little bit of a reference from the movie Almost Famous. It was a pleasure to work with Cherry, she is all around awesome, and a great photographer.”

RIGEL SAYS: “Be sure to comment in the hopefuls section on your favorite sets. Give other girls a second chance at going pink too!
" the last hour at the typewriter is only
good
if you've had a lucky
productive night,
otherwise
your time and effort have been wasted.

this night
I feel good about the poems scattered
on the floor.

the door of this room is
open
and i can se out into the
night,
see part of the city to
my left;
see many lights-yellow, white
red, blue;
see also the moving lights
of the cars
travelling south on the
Harbor freeway.

the lights of this city
are not at rest,
they shimmer in the dark.

a blue tree outside the window
looms powerful
at peace.

my death,
after so many nights
like this,
will seem logical,
sane
and
(like a few of my poems)
well-
written."

- Charles Bukowski”
