to dance beneath
the diamond sky
with one hand waving free
that shadow on the wall is dylan
as i saw him two weeks ago
a shadow of who he once was, perhaps
but he owns that shadow
there, on that wall
and anytime he is here
i am there.

Like a rolling stone, my memories are blowing in the wind.
You are so cool.

i read this earlier and was interrupted – the way my day is going – before i could comment. not a bad thing; i kept returning to it in my mind, he owning that shadow of who he once was, perhaps. love the idea that we keep all our shadows. love it.

If ever there was a shadow, an enigma, it is Dylan. I saw The Beatles, Springsteen, most of the legends; the only two I regret not seeing are Rick Nelson and Dylan. Few artists continue to challenge themselves and their audience as they age; Dylan is the only one that comes to mind immediately. Dylan taught me that great artists never stop, even when they reach the top (apologies to Frankie).
