The late Leonard Cohen was renowned for his legendary songwriting, but unbeknownst to many, he was also a prolific poet. Last week, a posthumous book of the artist’s poems, lyrics, and other scribblings, titled The Flame: Poems Notebooks Lyrics Drawings published. It was penned by Cohen in the months leading up to his death in November 2016.

Singer/songwriter Amanda Shires, who is a devoted Cohen fan, pointed out via Twitter Thursday that one of the poems in the book is titled “Kanye West Is Not Picasso.”

The poem reads:

Kanye West is not Picasso

I am Picasso

Kanye West is not Edison

I am Edison

I am Tesla

Jay-Z is not the Dylan of Anything

I am the Dylan of anything

I am the Kanye West of Kanye West

The Kanye West

Of the great bogus shift of bullshit culture

From one boutique to another

I am Tesla

I am his coil

The coil that made electricity soft as a bed

I am the Kanye West Kanye West thinks he is

When he shoves your ass off the stage

I am the real Kanye West

I don’t get around much anymore

I never have

I only come alive after a war

And we have not had it yet

The poem, dated “March 15, 2015,” is suggested to have been written in response to comments Kanye West made at Oxford University, in which he compares himself to Picasso in a lengthy speech which you can revisit below. Then in 2016, ‘Ye dropped his album The Life of Pablo.

Kanye West has yet to respond to the poem, and the message of the poem seems even more appropriate, three years after it was written.

Later today, Kanye West will join Donald Trump at The White House for the signing of the Music Modernization Act.
