A raven came by

WV1851/2024

Coloured pencils on Steinbach paper.

 

".....

I hear that you're building your little house deep in the desert

You're living for nothing now, I hope you're 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

You'd 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 nobody's wife...."

 

FAMOUS BLUE RAINCOAT - Leobard Cohen, 1971.
