Leonard Cohen is to Canada what Bob Dylan is to the U.S. Perfection and his verbiage is exquisite with the music and the meaning behind them. So many have to do with Jews and their walk to death or someone housing them. That runs deep with me as I grew up among Jews as child although we were Christian. It gave me a well rounded religious based understanding. Can you imagine this man being mute for years while he studied Budaism? He made up for it with his return to the industry to make money after his bookkeeper robbed him blind. Hard to imagine someone doing this to this icon of music, books and poetry. Thank you Mr. Cohen. May you rest in arms of the Angels.

MAGNIFICO SIEMPRE

[@michaelwoelke5359]

it was 1972 and i was 14 years old. i convinced my grandmother to let me ride a greyhound from Atascadero to Anaheim to spend 4 days with my girlfriend. i still cannot believe that she allowed it. Her mother let us sleep together and we slept under a single sheet in the heat of summer. naked and chaste, barely touching in the oppressive heat. i did not sleep a moment. just lay there and felt her presence. i don't believe she slept either. the next evening a friend of hers picked us up to go cruise. he was driving a 65 mustang with the obligatory hijackers, thrush mufflers and mags. we sat in the back seat, holding hands while we passed a joint and the car filled with smoke. i remember looking out the right side of the car as the wall around Disneyland passed by. Her friend slid a cassette tape into the tape deck and "Diamonds in the Mine" began playing from partway through the opening verse. i was mesmerized. he seemed to be singing right from my secret place, vocalizing emotions that i was, up till then, unable to voice. then i heard the song that has haunted me all of my life, "Famous Blue Raincoat" i can still smell the pot and exhaust and feel the heat of the summer and the rumble of the engine and i can remember the feel of her small hand in mine.. i do not remember her name and i cannot, for all of my trying, see her face but i remember those four days in the summer of 1972. it all comes rushing back every time i hear that song. i went back to grandmothers and then rode the bus back to San Diego and went right to the record store and ordered his album on vinyl. i played it 10,000 times if i played it once and waited for every album after that to come out. Leonard said that Famous Blue Raincoat was the one song that he felt was never finished, a story with missing parts, a mystery about regret and resignation and about forgiveness, forgiveness finally extended much too late for that unfortunate triangle of lovers. I still listen to it, waiting to hear the next layer of meaning. my life is certainly a story with missing parts and maybe all of us have a few missing parts... and more than a few layers of meaning waiting to be heard . i have listened to his music my entire life, i am always amazed at how powerful his lyrics are, how he was able to place a few simple words into a perfect sequence that could evoke such emotion and such depth of meaning. i still, to this day, will hear a lyric that i have heard 5,000 times and suddenly a deeper meaning becomes so apparent that i cannot believe it took so many years to peel back the layers to discover it. i sometimes think that he wrote songs that i would need decades later in my life. A great poet a fierce critic of hatred and suffering, a man who battled against the wrong in the world and never lost his belief in the goodness of humanity. He was never afraid to to stand up and shake his fist into the face of the creator, demanding an explanation for the suffering and evil he allowed in the world. He could write poetry that was at once both sensual and spiritual and leave you knowing they were one in the same. it sounds funny but i will not miss him; he has been a friend, a guide and a teacher. he will remain so, always at arms reach. I am sad that i will not see him again. i am grateful that i saw him in Red Rocks in 09 and i regret that i did not buy that ticket to Dublin. ...I choose the rooms that i live in with care the windows are small and the walls are bare there is only one bed, there is only one prayer and i wait every night for your step on the stair... enjoy the next adventure Leonard, demand that our deities be accountable for what they have done and what they have not. ...and i know from your eyes and i know from your smile that tonight will be fine, will be fine, will be fine, will be fine... for awhile
