ALL OF MY BEST POEMS

All of my best poems
are by Leonard Cohen
Except for the one
by William Blake

They wrote them down
because they have poet's fingers
And so that I can get on with the important business
of trying to forget everything I know

A tricky business
this takes up most of my time
My mother is my teacher
I.. I... what was I saying?

All of my best poems
are by Leonard Cohen
He wrote them down
because he has a poet's fingers

Sadly, for the poet,
he forgot to give them back
