Review of Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man (2006) by Maree T — 07 Aug 2006

Like fine wine he creates his masterpieces. The words to his songs and his voice and music have been with me for most of my life. I'd like to thank him for sharing his talent with the world! At 5 years old I did not know about fine wine, good music, great talent, or how to listen. When I recieved that gift all things changed for me. I wish you that gift and then you will understand Leonard Cohen.

You never liked to get.

The letters that I sent.

But now you've got the gist.

Of what my letters meant.

You're reading them again,.

The ones you didn't burn.

You press them to your lips,.

My pages of concern.

I said there'd been a flood.

I said there's nothing left.

I hoped that you would come.

I gave you my address.

Your story was so long,.

The plot was so intense,.

It took you years to cross.

The lines of self-defense.

The wounded forms appear:

The loss, the full extent;.

And simple kindness here,.

The solitude of strength.

You walk into my room.

You stand there at my desk,.

Begin your letter to.

The one who's coming next.

By Leonard Cohen.
