*

and

Soon a sun

Shall rise

*

and now

Leonard Cohen is singing

His shadow

*

and now

White winds

Cascade in waves

Against the windowpane

*

and now

It’s four

in the morning,

at the end

of December…

*

and now

Amazed and amused

We fall

Into a mirror,

Draining remaining

Precious drops

Of dark port rum

*

Clay vessels in the song

of a

shadow

*

Clay vessels in the shadow

of a

song

*

Lullaby on his most recent album Old Ideas
