ARGUMENT
You might be a person who likes to
argue with Eternity. A good way to
begin such an Argument is:
Why do You rule against me
Why do You silence me now
When will the Truth be on my lips
And the Light be on my brow?
After some time has passed, the answer to these questions
percolating upwards from the pit of your stomach, or downwards
from the crown of your hat, or having been given, at last, the right
pill, you might begin to fall in love with the One who has asked them;
and perhaps then you will cry out, as so many of our parents did:
Blessed be the One
Who has sweetened
my Argument.
– Leonard Cohen
