Today I Remember Leonard Cohen

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

I never Knew him

But I did.

I tasted the flesh of his words.

I drank the blood.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

He lived with me

In my house.

His voice penetrated these walls.

His words infiltrated my brain.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

A distant figure

On a stage.

Silhouetted by a spotlight.

Performing.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

He was a singer,

A poet;

A man restricted

By his lusts.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

A man on a quest

That never ended.

A quest

Without a destination.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

A poet who used words

Carefully.

Who sculpted his

Thoughts.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

For, despite his faults,

He touched me,

Brought me joy.

Taught me

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.

Today the internet was alive with Leonard Cohen. Perhaps it was my algorithms? Perhaps it was the new documentary? Perhaps it was his ghost?

Today I read and listened.

Today was a day to cogitate and ponder.

Today I remember Leonard Cohen.
