Final Days Of Loneliness

Are these the last days because I'm suddenly going to have friends and feel loved?
Or because I'm not going to exist any longer?

...
but there is genius in their hatred
there is enough genius in their hatred to kill you
to kill anybody
not wanting solitude
not understanding solitude
they will attempt to destroy anything
that differs from their own
not being able to create art
they will not understand art
they will consider their failure as creators
only as a failure of the world
not being able to love fully
they will believe your love incomplete
and then they will hate you
and their hatred will be perfect
...
exc. from Charles Bukowski's The Genius Of The Crowd
