the soundtrack from movie "factotum" contains 4 songs based on the poems of charles bukowski.?

Question

WHAT ARE THE TITLES OF THE POEMS? WHAT COLECTIONS ARE THEY IN?

Answer 1

Track 17 "Shoes" is a Bukowski poem. I don't know what collection it is from. I'm afraid I'm not as up on my Bukowski as I would like :(

when you're young
a pair of
female
high-heeled shoes
just sitting
alone
in the closet
can fire your
bones;
when you're old
it's just
a pair of shoes
without
anybody
in them
and
just as
well.
