Bukowski writes to John (presumably to John Martin, his editor at Black Sparrow Press), in full: "O.K. John You carry your mash shit. I'm not Patricia Hearst. I'd love to fuck her but I'm working on the pome. Still, you're O.K. Bukowski -- I'm high. You swing out.--" With two drawings in Bukowski's hand.
