Leonard Cohen

A poem written in an Electric Tomatoes session just after the death of Leonard Cohen.

Suzanne took me down

She had a place by the river

She put on her old turntable

As I flicked through her vinyl

But all I found to listen to

While the storm outside was raging

Was an album by The Beastie Boys

And Revolver by The Beatles

Then she looked up and noticed

While the boats rocked by outside

That the evening was descending

And that I really should be leaving

So I went and called an Űber

This Is Just To Say

William,

I have drunk

all the Blue Mountain

coffee

if you want any

you will need

to go to the store

I am not sorry

I perceived that

my need

was greater

than yours
