Have you read Ham on Rye? Probably my favorite Bukowski novel; most of it deals with adolescence though, so it might not have the same effect if you're reading it in adulthood...I don't know.

Out of the river all ugly and green,
Came the biggest old alligator that I've ever seen!
Teeth big and pointy and his eyes were buggin' out,
Contracted the union, put the beggars to rout.
Screamin' and yellin', he was pickin' his chops,
He never runs he just stumbles and hops.
Just out of prison on ten dollars bail,
Mumblin' bitches and waggin' his tail.
