Remembering Leonard Cohen who died 6 years ago today.
“Yeah I missed you since the place got wrecked
By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
looks like freedom but it feels like death
it's something in between, I guess
it's closing time.” pic.twitter.com/b8taQfRbzs— Irish Literary Times (@IrishLitTimes) November 7, 2022
