		projectramo on Nov 11, 2016 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Leonard Cohen Has Died I wanted to post some of his lyrics as a comment, but it turns out you can take any rhyming subset and it is appropriate for almost any occasion. (Not kidding, try it yourself). They're ambiguous so that helps. "But let's not talk of love or chains and things we can't untie, your eyes are soft with sorrow, Hey, that's no way to say goodbye." RIP, Leonard Cohen

    "Ring the bells that still can ring
     forget your perfect offering
     there is a crack in everything
     that's how the light gets in."
                           -- Anthem

As I get older, I appreciate the cracks more.
