Well, unlike my friend Bob, I do know enough about poetry to fel confidant in saying:
If he sung themm they were lyrics. If he recited them they were poetry.
Hell. Show me a poem that can't be sung, and I will show ya you only thought it couldn't be.
Show me a lyric that can't be recited and i will either show ya yo are wrong, or it is just a bad bit of writing.
Or at least is a lyric written around a piece of music that needed some filling.
Also unlike my Young cobber. I have been known to wear jockey shorts, but like him, I draw the line on using a neck hanger to play harp, and do wish Bob Dylan would join our club on that one.
Better yet. Stop murdering the thing all together.
Does he warrent a Nobel prize for music?
I don't think so.
I am not a fan.
He is a good writer.
But doesn't hold a candle to some of the other names mentioned.
