Poetry Center Archive,Leonard Cohen, 1966

Ghazal of the morning Market, F.G.Lorca

(Gacela del mercado matutino, F.G.Lorca)

Ghazal of the morning Market
F.G.Lorca

I will watch as you pass
through the arch of Elvira,
I will whisper your name,
I will weep, and get nearer.

What grey moon drew the blood
from your velvety cheek?
Who would gather your seed
of snow, blazing and shriek?
What brief needle of cactus
cuts this crystal, unique? 
 
I will watch as you pass
through the arch of Elvira,
I will drink your deep eyes,
I will weep, and get nearer.

What a voice to chastise me,
until I am torn!
What a ruptured carnation
midst heaps of green corn!
I’m far when I near you,
so close when you’re gone.  

I will watch as you pass
through the arch of Elvira,
I will feel your sleek thighs,
I will weep, and get nearer.

Leonard Cohen (auth. Federico G. Lorca): "Take This Waltz" NY-1988

Paloma Blanca

this white dove
chained inside.
you made it fly
for another day

la paloma blanca
it flies to green fields
of hope and release
trying to find you

over bridges across
the morning river,
roofs glimmering
in flowing light

this white dove,
chained at night,
feels its heart,
the sky, in flight

my paloma blanca
come rest on my hand,
lean your head
against my shoulder

we are the same,
two of a kind,
to rest and to fly,
to live and to die

ego trap

i heard about foxes and wolves
and a climber that they bite and gnaw 
the stuck part to regain freedom.
what about the ego trap, the soul caught in the mind unable to sing? 
is this why people commit suicide or enter a monastery? is this all?

no i cannot skim
the waves, i lost
my board, the
sea is wild today

no i cannot dance
with you, i lost
the rhythm, the floor
moves away today

no, i cannot stay
the same, i fly
into the dawn, 
the silent death,

yes, through gates
to the unknown,
through pain
searching my heart

and yes, the day
was cold, i am,
i only only fly
to keep warm

don't ask,
all answers are
not what we mean
and we cannot listen

no,  i cannot say
what i live.
no, and you
cannot.

and no, it was
not me who killed
the bird in the cage,
it was the cat.

Lisboa, today


so..a good day,
i could stop thinking.
though, as xmas is for me each day
i couldn't create and feel hope much, i failed,
but i lived and flowed in faith
