On Dylan's 70 th Birthday May 24th 2011

Why do the

last or first

complain ?

They arrive and

partaking exit

just the same.

A poxy paradox

relenting progress

passing proud !

This silence mutes,

Autumn stills

in screens aloud.

He nearly died

no less now

out of fashion.

Roles are whole

not bit part

fruits of passion,

So that is why

we live and die

just ....

bit part players.
