What is really sad for me when people like Cohen pass on, is that they are not being replaced. When they are gone, they are gone. In a culture that is too dumbed down and lacks any clue of sensitivity or imagination, at least in the amount that existed before and in the sixties, such a loss is permanent. There will just not be any source for poets and troubadours and composers in Trumpland and what comes after Trump. Only reality TV and other trash. The political loss and the artistic loss seemed to converge this week for me. Hallelujah. Democracy is leaving the USA. Everybody knows.
