Last weekend my girlfriend went to visit her sister for the weekend. Promptly, I reverted to being twenty-five years old. I drank some beers and listened to old Leonard Cohen LPs on the record player.
This is the result-
Manifesto
What I couldn’t heal with my hands
I’ll heal with this song
Though all your days are pain filled
and all your nights are long
What can’t be healed with pressure
and can’t be healed with heat
What can’t be healed by love
What intellect can’t beat
What is resistant to freezing
and any will or choice
What aches beyond all touching
will be healed by tone..
and voice
