This is one of his best.

>Kid Stardust on the Porterhouse
my luck was down again and I was too nervous at this time from excessive wine-drinking; wild-eyed, weak; too depressed to find my usual stop-gap, rest-up job as shipping clerk or stock boy, so I went down to the meat packing plant and walked into the office.
haven't I seen you before? the man asked.
no, I lied.
I'd been there 2 or 3 years before, gone through all the paper work, the medical and so forth, and they had led me down steps, 4 floors down and it had gotten colder and colder and the floors had been covered with a sheen of blood, green floors, green walls. I had been explained my job – which was to push a button and then through this hole in the wall there was a noise like the crushing of fullbacks or elephants falling in lay, and here it came – something dead, a lot of it, bloody, and he showed me, you take it and throw it on the truck and then push the button and another one comes along, then he walked away, when he did I took off my smock, my tin hat, by boots (issued 3 size too small) and walked up the stairway and out of there. Now I was back.

"You look a little old for the job."

"I want to toughen up. I need hard work, good hard work," I lied.

"Can you handle it?"

"I'm nothing but guts. I used to be in the ring, I've fought the best."

"Oh, yes?"

"Yeah."

"Umm, I can see by your face. You must have been in some fierce ones."

"Never mind my face. I had fast hands. Still have. I had to take some dives, had to make it look good."

"I follow boxing. I don't recall your name."

"I fought under another name. Kid Stardust,"

"Kid Stardust? I don't recall a Kid Stardust."

"I fought in South America, Africa, Europe, the islands, I fought in the tank towns. That's why there're all these gaps in my employment record—I don't like to put down boxer because people think I am kidding or lying. I just leave the blanks and to hell with it."

"All right, show up for your med. at 9:30 a.m. tomorrow and we'll put you to work. You say you want hard work?"

"Well, if you have something else . . ."

"No, not right now. You know, you look close to 50 years old. I wonder if I'm doing the right thing? We don't like you people to waste our time."

"I'm not people—I'm Kid Stardust."

"O.k., kid," he laughed, "we'll put you to WORK!"

I didn't like the way he said it.

Bukowski was a legit low T faggot, which only got worse due to alcoholism. He'd probably cry if someone was even slightly mean to him in public.

Be flattered that a great poet thought me worthy of his time, buy him another drink.

I'm not about to piss off Bukowski and if I wait long enough he should die of liver failure.
