I think he could

The foreign sun, it squints upon
A bed that is never mine
As friends and other strangers
From their fates try to resign
Leaving men wholly totally free
To do anything they wish to do but die
And there are no trials inside the Gates of Eden.

Dylan was a pretty good musician as well. Songs like "buckets of rain" demonstrate his skill as a guitar player. And the song "new morning" is a great display of his skill as a piano player. And if you've seen him live anytime recently you've seen how much better hes got at the organ. And most importantly, as janszoon said, Dylan wrote more songs that I like. Perhaps I'll listen to Bowie more. I certainly have a respect for some of his music already.
