the troubadour has disguised the music
the troubadour has disguised shape
the troubadour has disguised belief
the troubadour observes
~Michelene Wandor
Dear Bob Dylan is a collection of letters which began several years ago as a way for me to express myself in a literary sense, not only to the man whom they are written for but also as a scene where I could place my thoughts. Rather than begin a journal I chose instead to write Bob Dylan letters.
The original 44 letters, the first of which was written in August of 2005 are currently being housed at a wonderful website of poetry titled A Little Poetry, where I hope they will forever remain. Had it not been for the editor there, Tracee, these letters may never have seen the light of day.
As a poet I seek inspiration in other poets, musicians, artists and everyday people. No one has made a larger impact on my life than Bob Dylan.

Thanks for sharing your letters with me, I feel the same way but have never expressed it.
Peace,

Dear Lisa:
Fell upon your site quite unexpectedly. I share your sentiments —
–and have done so since I was a young girl in the early 1960s …but ever moreso in the past couple of years …something is in the air, and it ain’t the fragrance of honeysuckle …
