My parents grew up on Bob Dylan, who is turning 78.
I went to a Dylan concert at Pfeiffer University in Misenheimer, North Carolina in 1976, when I was 2 years old. It was loud. I cried and my mom had to take me to get ice cream.
Decades later, I stumbled upon, and fell in love with this brilliant song.
Songs are poetry. (They rhyme sometimes), and of course Dylan was a master of words. One of my favorite Bob Dylan stanzas is this one from "Tangled Up In Blue:"
(the lines are actually not in the original handwritten song shown here, but are in most lyrical interpretations of the version on the original album. He wrote & performed several versions).
Here's the story of that song, and here's more about Dylan's complex rhymes.
