This poem was published in The Spice-Box of Earth, Leonard Cohen's second collection of poetry (1961). My lady can sleep Upon a handkerchief Or if it be Fall Upon a fallen leaf. I have seen the hunters Kneel before her hem - Even in her sleep She turns away from them. The only gift they offer Is their abiding grief - I pull out my pockets For a handkerchief or leaf.
