& when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said all men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them

Leonard Cohen dying is so goddamned symbolic right now. You just don't let up, do you 2016?

Overwhelming sadness. Leonard Cohen, a poet of genius, has left us. His words will stay with us forever. May he rest in peace.
