Poetry #1

1. The Levi's commercial is using the poem The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski.
2.The commercial can be considered ironic because its telling us that we have to buy jeans but on the other hand the poem states "don't be clubbed into dank submission." By that it is telling you to live your life.
3. The poem does reflect the author because he lived through a bad childhood and you could tell it meant something.
4. I entered a line from the poem into Google and The Best American Poetry came up (thebestamericanpoetry.typepad.com) and I googled Charles Bukowski.
