Robert Zimmerman, enigmatic man,
You changed your name because you can,
You epitomize deepest meaning of free,
Chronicled fifty years of music poetry.
.
How many roads has this man walked down,
Open-mouthed crtics, some wore a frown,
Listeners devoted, we all voted thus,
Dylan is Dylan, that's enough for us.
.
Guitar went electric, 'twas your attitude,
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose,
Chuckling, sang I would not feel so all alone,
Everybody must get stoned!
.
Through Halls of Fame, Grammy Awards, Oscar
For a movie score, Pulitzer acclaim citation wore,
This musicians' mentor is ever on tour.
But the depths of Dylan we have yet to explore.
