"Leonard Cohen Laughed, and It Was Good"

I talked to Leonard Cohen last night.
He didn't have much to say;
he lost his words during the storm.
He sat on the line in a pool of silence,
waiting like the great Buddha.
And I said, "Leonard, you know,
you're gonna have to talk if you call."
And he responded, "My dear friend,
I think that sounds a bit metaphorical."
And he laughed and laughed,
like a monk on Christmas vacation.
