CHAPTER :
Inspired by Leonard Cohen who I knew ´cause of my favourite Spanish musician and now, I love them both.

There is a gap
in the chain link fence,
There is a fight
in pre-emptive defense.
There is a start
in the back of the offence.
There is a pillow
over the nest of decadence.
There is a tale
to make any sense.

There is a poetry of the absurd
there is bad poetry in dog’s turd
there is no poetry in rancid curd.

There is a map
illustrating the past;
there is a right
to make it last
There is a part
to stand fast..
There is a willow
weeping in the beer cask.
There is a sail
surrounding the mail mast.

There is a poetry of the absurd
there is bad poetry in dog’s turd
there is no poetry in rancid curd.

I am argentine, but my English poems ( probably with mistakes that I´m sure you will dispense from) are devoted to the great poet that Leonard was during his entire life).
