an almost accidental gathering of poets
 
   
 
 
Leonard Cohen
 
This is the only poem
I can read
I am the only one
can write it
Others seem to think
the past can guide them
My own music
is not merely naked
It is open-legged
It is like a cunt
and like a cunt
must needs be houseproud
I didnīt kill myself
when things went wrong
I didnīt turn
to drugs or teaching
I tried to sleep
but when I couldnīt sleep
I learned to write
I learned to write
what might be read
on nights like this
by one like me.
