Leonard Cohen, dix ans après, Last Year's Man

 

 

« Give me a Leonard Cohen afterworld/ So I can sigh eternally » (Kurt Cobain, Pennyroyal Tea) 

 

« The rain falls down on last year’s man 

That’s a Jew’s harp on the table 

That’s a crayon in his hand 

And the corners of the blueprint are ruined since they rolled 

far past the stems of thumbtacks 

that still throw shadows on the wood 

And the skylight is like skin for a drum I’ll never mend 

And all the rain falls down amen 

on the works of last year’s man… » 

 

(Leonard Cohen, Last Year’s Man)
