The Genius of the Crowd is Bukowski’s warning to beware of the two-faced preachers that go about spreading a message while they internally are fighting a mental war against it. He asks his readers to find the hidden meaning in the sentences spoken by a preacher of God, who is secretly in need of finding God, of the preachers of peace who secretly are good at war and the secretive murders who publically practice peace. His warning is against all false pretences of what people show themselves to be and what they secretly are built on the inside. This poem acts as a lesson to revive the reader into jumping back to reality and analysing the truth behind every situation.
