/lit/ - Literature

Never heard of the man.

>>9227944
Are you single?

>>9227944
damn is his poetry any good?

>>9227942
He's shit and a Jew

>>9227954

>>9227952
I really like his Flowers for Hitler, it has some of his best poems.

>>9227957
(((Cohen))) is middlebrow garbage. Poetry for the kind of idiots who listen to pop music

>>9227965
Says an anti-Semite

>>9227965
But his lyrics are great.

>>9227948
Nope, married with kids. We both love Cohen and saw him in concert a few years back. Shame he's gone.
>>9227952
Yes. He writes some junk, especially in his last book, but in his early collections like Spice-Box and Flowers he manages some amazing stuff. And of course some of his song lyrics are classics, as well. Book of Mercy is a different kind of work, but worth it for the right reader.

>>9227942
Yeah he's alright.

Love his music, liked Beautiful Losers. Haven't read any of his poetry yet (well, other than lyrics)

>>9227942
What's bad about his novels?

>>9228848
Shock factor, in 60s Canada, that is.

>>9228848
Not kosher

>>9228879

My favourite song is Avalanche, the lyrics mixed with his fast triplets really set the mood.

>>9229557
why don't you realize that liking Cohen is against the redpill? You are destroying the white race by supporting his degeneracy

>>9227942
They were playing his music on the radio shortly after he died. I thought it sounded like trash, to be honest.

>>9229574
What does this even mean?

>>9229574

>>9229585
Take the redpill and you'd realize what is being done to you're brain

>>9229591
I really didn't know there were so many idiots on 4chan.

>>9229591
This is really too much. Guess you only like Wagner?

>>9229604
Wagner is fucking awesome

m8, go read Republic and watch The Big Lebowski. There isn't a cabal of Jews ruling the world, mass delusion is how humanity has always operated. Society is not controlled via an elaborate conspiracy, it's humans acting on delusions of self-interest and fulfillment.

Two things you should do if you aren't a fag

1) Stop annoying people on /lit/, Lennon said "whisper words of wisdom" because only a twat/Socrates yells out the secrets of the human condition.

2) Realize that the rabbit hole is infinitely deep and that you've barely poked in your head. The human paradigm is finite and an open mind has virtually infinite imaginative ability if you give it the right circumstances. The true nature of human sexuality and the art of manipulation/influence are baby shit compared to what you can see with literature, poetry, philosophy, meditation, psychoactive substances, good music, sleep deprivation, lucid dreaming, high art, and talking with other open minds.

Stop wasting your time and enjoy the best things in life

>1) Stop annoying people on /lit/, Lennon said "whisper words of wisdom" because only a twat/Socrates yells out the secrets of the human condition.
McCartney was the one who wrote that line and Lennon very much yelled out what he thought were the secrets of the human condition in the late 60s and early 70s. Ever listen to Imagine?

He's a treasure found in the wasteland that is pop-culture.

>>9230809
>>9229574
You've convinced yourself through ideology to despise art and poetry.
Sad!

>>9229755
not him but you should be killed.

>dude lsd lmao!
>john lennon
holy shit you're a pseud

>>9233520
Yeah, he sounds like he's trying to sell a self-help book written by a pyramid scheme member.

>>9229591
Do you feel powerful? I ask this genuinely, we're all wasting our time here. Why be mean and hateful? No really. Give me some good reasons to take this red pill. Frankly it sounds like an awful way to live. To be angry at nothing all the time. Why not try and understand others and their emotions even though they are different from you?

He was a pseud

>>9227942
love his music but never read any of his written works

One of Us Cannot be Wrong or Chelsea Hotel? Which is the best Cohen song?

>>9235435
Who by Fire, or The Story of Isaac

Did you know that Cohen drew his album covers?

>>9235435
One of Us Cannot be Wrong in my opinion, it's absolutely incredible, the best track from his best album.

This is the most obvious bait and you idiots still fall for it. Don't reply to these guys.

>>9237200
These guys are suicidal, if you don't reply, they might kill themselves, or even worse, go on a killing spree. By replying you are helping the society.

>>9227942
He's a handsome guy. I would love to have held his hand.

>>9227965
Shove off, honky. Go get triggered somewhere else.

>>9237376
Me too

>>9235435
Dress Rehearsal Rag.

>>9237744
Nice one

>>9237744
>not Stranger Song

I used to have the future on my old ipod shuffle, back when i only knew one or two songs per artist. I listened to each song like ten times before moving on

>>9235435
The Master Song is my fav but I've only heard two albums

>>9238561
Listen to others, too.

Cohen was robbed by Dylan.

>>9238862
Yah

>>9238828
Will do, cheers
