Defend the Poet

Charles Bukowski's Dinosauria, We poem was very interesting. It felt like he wrote the peom yesterday, even though he died in 1994, because of how how current everthing he said sounded. Reading this peom really got me thinking about what the future will hold and maybe that was his sole purpose in writing the poem at all. If everyone that read it tried to change that could help save the world. He compared us to Dinosaurs and that we are going to be extict just like them. I'm not sure if I agree with his prediction at the end of the world ending though. He just sounded very mad at the world and like he was going through something. I don't believe that the world will ever get so bad that men will have to start eating other men. Still that doesn't mean that Bukowski's prediction isn't correct because it could happen.
