In a brilliant place!
Just heard that Leonard Cohen passed away.

Much of his work was long before my time. But his work was timeless. Once I discovered him I really loved his music.

Hallelujah Leonard. Your work was brilliant.

(And I'm not just using brilliant as a joke here)

He was a poet up in Canada before he emigrated here to our USA. His work was timeless. Thank you for your artistry. RIP

And Jesus was a sailor when he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching from his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain only drowning men could see him
He said all men will be sailors then until the sea shall free them
But he himself was broken, long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human, he sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

He was a Buddhist monk at one time. Great talent. And I wouldn't think I'd say that as a Do-Op and metalhead.
