Poetry #1

1. The poem is “The Laughing Heart” by Charles Bukowski.
2. First, the people that Bukowski lived around were not the richest. It is ironic that Levi’s company would use a man’s poem who could not sell it the product to the people around him.
3. The poem definitely resembles his reputation because of many things. First, is that he lived the life he wanted because it was his life. He was writing for the newspaper and had the FBI keep a file on him. Other adventurous and outgoing things was that he took his family to the United States.
4. For #1 I used Google and typed in the poems words to find the name of him and the title of the poem. For #3 I also used Google to find a biography on his life from the website IMDb.
