"Talking so brave and so sweet."

Here, in green house,
here, in new room,
here, with pasta bowl,
here, what is the point?
Hello there, galaxy, hello all of you--
you all,
such heathens! creatures of flaw,
but I forgive you, I forgive myself.

Does heaven's vault open with light and joy?
What is the totality of everything which exists?

Hello Leonard Cohen,
the prettiest girl
in your universe
broke your heart
again.
Leonard Cohen,
bleeding-heart by disguise,
breaking hearts 'til he cries,
"talking
so brave
and
so sweet."
