"Famous Blue Raincoat" by Leonard Cohen

Famous Blue Raincoat Leonard Cohen

MariaAdouaneta

December 20, 2007



Its four in the morning, the end of December
Im writing you now just to see if youre better
New york is cold, but I like where Im living
Theres music on clinton street all through the evening.

I hear that youre building your little house deep in the desert
Youre living for nothing now, I hope youre keeping some kind of record.

Yes, and jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear
Did you ever go clear?

Ah, the last time we saw you you looked so much older
Your famous blue raincoat was torn at the shoulder
Youd been to the station to meet every train
And you came home without lili marlene

And you treated my woman to a flake of your life
And when she came back she was nobodys wife.

Well I see you there with the rose in your teeth
One more thin gypsy thief
Well I see janes awake –

She sends her regards.
And what can I tell you my brother, my killer
What can I possibly say?
I guess that I miss you, I guess I forgive you
Im glad you stood in my way.

If you ever come by here, for jane or for me
Your enemy is sleeping, and his woman is free.

Yes, and thanks, for the trouble you took from her eyes
I thought it was there for good so I never tried.

And jane came by with a lock of your hair
She said that you gave it to her
That night that you planned to go clear

-- sincerely, l. cohen

Dean Minnich’s “A History of Westminster” on the WTTR web site

Dean Minnich’s “A History of Westminster” on the WTTR web site

(I was giving a fellow reporter a hand with some WTTR history the other day and found this in a Google-search… It was originally written by now-Carroll County Commissioner Dean Minnich. Commissioner Minnich really captured the essence of Westminster… Kevin Dayhoff March 20, 2009)

An excerpt from "Towns & Villages of Carroll County" by Dean L. Minnich, 1995

http://www.wttr.com/westminster.html

Ask a resident of Westminster to describe the town, and the answer you get will depend as much on where they grew up as on their current address.

Those who grew up riding their bikes on Main Street and through the alleys will know a different city than the parent who watches a child explore a tot lot in The Greens. Old-timers with memories of the City Restaurant and G. C. Murphy’s, the State Theater and shooting rats with .22’s at the city dump at the end of Monroe Street (site of the present St. John’s school and church) will know a different town than the 20-something young man walking dogs in Furnace Hills or the women enjoying Ladies’ Night at Tully’s.

The truth is, like most other Carroll County towns, Westminster’s story is a tale of two cities; one kept alive by traditions and old perspectives and another that is emerging with the changes of time and growth. It is a microcosm of the story of Carroll County at large; it is the story of every small town in the county, but on a larger scale.

Read the rest on WTTR’s web site – http://www.wttr.com/westminster.html; however, if the link ever goes bad – email me at kevindayhoff AT gmail.com and I’ll post the entire article…

I can no longer deny it. Things have, well … thickened … a little around my middle. Now, this could be a result of encroaching middle age. It could be that I lead a sedentary life chained, for most of the day, to a desk. It could be my love for chocolate. In fact, that may be the only reason…

While taking her turn doing Off Track Art studio duty; Pam Zappardino claims to have been visited upon by the Fuller brush traveling salesman. Of course this sounds like a short story, however, Pam is sticking by her story. No word as to whether or not his name was Godot or what Samuel Beckett has to say about the affair.
