read a lot of potery and fiction
use historical anecdotes from time to time
be vague when needed

and get out of your fucking room

where do igo

get baked and throw yourself down the stairs a few times

outside

country infused stream of consciousness wordplay will come to you but only if you say "Ay Ay lemme riddle like Uncle Bobbo"

hell be fine

ay ay lemme riddle like uncle bobo

Ay Ay lemme riddle like Uncle Bobo

read a lot of poetry and novels
live a life as interesting as him
break your heart a couple of times
travel a lot

amphetamines

coffee shops (not starbucks, local places)
concerts
art museums
the art district of your local city
parks
libraries

From my personal experience as a writer, it helps to walk around and get immersed in the environment. Read poetry, listen to music etc.

Nazi lemmy rico icke roni nodde! Good one btw.

>>live a life as interesting as him
what life did bob have? we know nothing about him

ay ay let me ride like uncle bobbo

i think he got some biographies under his name, also, given his age and money, i bet he has been through a lot of things, way more than our fellow young members of this chinese board

I actually am wondering about this too.

First I suggest finding a really, really good introduction to poetry. Lyrics are just poetry set to music. Don't overthink it. Study poetry and writing.

Second, you know - go outside. Do things that make you uncomfortable. Be a fucking jangler. Do stuff that jangles you inside. Break your barriers.

I recently have been reading a book by Harold Bloom on Shakespear and it has really helped me to understand poetry and writing more.

What would be great would be a book that is totally just devoted to the greatest poems ever written, and has essays and explanations for each one. Kind of like an intro to poetry but without the boring technical shit about meter and blah blah blah.

i think i know what your problem is

you're dumb and boring and that can't be fixed

you sound like a stupid faggot

intentionally fuck up a relationship

Ay Ay lemme riddle like Uncle Bobbo"

fuck off faggot

see

Read Walt Whitman, William Blake, and the King James Bible.

stop trying to emulate the unemulatable

this() is great advice
but also
don't limit yourself.
You have a unique perspective. Even if you don't think you do.
Probably even an experience or two he didn't have.
You can't just look outward, you have to look inward, too.
And when you write don't wonder if he'd like it.
Figure out if you like it.
And if you don't then try again.

brothels, really rough pubs, Ladbrokes

as if anyone here know

oh come of it

it'd be like

"Hey Mr Postman sending me a letter
that I sent myself
many years ago

The doors that I have closed
were the ones I walked through
and the experiences
live here in the room"

sort of thing

Take in as wide array an of influences as you can.
Dylan has been pretty much a recluse for the majority of his life by now, just saying.
Dude, the only musicians that has more biographies out about them than Dylan are The Beatles. There are even books detailing every he's known to have written.

>Dylan has been pretty much a recluse for the majority of his life by now, just saying.
really, I never knew that

I mean, recluse isn't exactly the right word, he does go out and tour obviously but for a rockstar of his stature he lives an insanely private life.

The guy who wrote american pie tried to write like him, so take that as an inspiration.

and a renowned womaniser

Erm, not really. I mean, yeah, compared to you and me he probably is but again compared to the average rockstar/figure in the public sphere not so much. The only period of his life where Dylan lived like a rockstar was during the electric era...which was a total of 14 months.

>break your heart
>a couple of times

More like all the time.

Jimi Hendrixs carried a book of Dylan lyrics with him most places.

be touched by God

Sell your soul to Satan.
