This is what the world has come to.

Game of Thrones is considered an epic and Bob Dylan a poet.

Retreat, friend.

Funny that a literature board who doesn’t even read poetry would get mad over Dylan winning.

poets generally fall on the left side of things politically

Even among lyricists Dylan is middling. Just compare to 21 pilots

Sometimes a certain smell will take me back to when I was young
How come I'm never able to identify where it's coming from
I'd make a candle out of it if I ever found it
Try to sell it, never sell out of it, I'd probably only sell one

It'd be to my brother, 'cause we have the same nose
Same clothes homegrown a stone's throw from a creek we used to roam
But it would remind us of when nothing really mattered
Out of student loans and tree-house homes we all would take the latter

I like Bob, but he's just a pop star.
