Faces of a Cohen
A life in The Word
A human
Condition;
Testament to
That crack in everything
That lets the light in.

All the Muses have Left
All the muses have left
me .
They’ve been
gone for a while ,
perhaps even longer .
Don’t know where they go,
when they suddenly travel .
It’s just their style .
to suddenly leave .
Are they
in The south of France
or gone en vacances
to Kuwai, or Hawaii ?
Maybe they’re at
work in some
street city ghetto
or have travelled to China
or even Dubai ?
All I know is
they’ve left me
as cold as a fish
without even as much
as a parting goodbye .
They do that sometimes.
They know
that I don’t take offense ,
that I wouldn’t mark
a single line
till they’re back
in my corner
drilling
circling
In defense
of the word or
of any line
that they drop
on my heart
or slip into soul .
This is just a note
: Wishing you were
here.
Sitting Home Alone .
I should make
efforts to make
this poem known
Instead of sitting
home alone .
Not that it’s
some standard
of established good
or bad ,
It’s just so very sad
that
It sits here on it’s own
waiting
to be received,
reflected on,
perceived,
perhaps
to mirror someone else’s
thoughts,
life condition,
woes,
or
Someone else’s throws
of passion or regrets .
This poem needs
company,
and a reference point ,
just like everybody else.
