Fire Station was published by Capra Press 1970. It would be the last time a Bukowski book was published by someone besides Black Sparrow Press for many years. This is the first edition of the book and is in Very Good ++ with some light stains to the covers along with some general light soiling. There are fairly small creases to the right corners, which is common with the oversized deckled covers. Fire Station was actually made up of “leftover” poems that didn’t make the cut for The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over The Hills. Black Sparrow Press publisher John Martin hired Sanford Dorbin to select the poems that appeared in The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over The Hills. The two disagreed vehemently on some of the poems that should appear in the book. As a result, Dorbin took the poems Martin rejected for the book and approached CAPRA Press, who used them in Fire Station. Like the poems in The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over The Hills, all of the poems in Fire Station previously appeared in poetry journals during the previous decade. This is a great gift for a fan because there were only two printings, both of which took place in 1970. Learn more about Fire Station. Fire Station includes the following poems: The Paper On The Floor - pg. 9 - circa 1959 2 Flies - pg. 12 - circa 1963 Through The Streets Of Anywhere - pg. 15 - circa 1964 Fire Station (For Jane, With Love) - pg. 17 - circa 1967 An Argument Over Marshall Foch - pg. 23 - circa 1961 40 Cigarettes - pg. 25 - circa 1965 A Killer Gets Ready - pg. 27 - circa 1966 I Love You - pg. 29 - circa 1966 A Little Atomic Bomb - pg. 30 - circa 1966 Box 45.…
