I never knew the name of the girl
walking down the street with Dylan
on the cover of The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan

I assumed a model was hired by the record company
to link arms with the downward-looking Dylan
and be photographed traipsing down the cold New York streets.

They neither of them wear gloves,
but it must be cold since she’s layered
and Dylan’s jacket was thin because “image was all.”

They lived together in Greenwich Park for three years,
then Dylan went on a tour and began dating Joan Baez
around the time Suze wanted to travel and study art.

Don’t Think Twice, a song in which Dylan sings
“You kind of wasted my precious time,” is on the album
and it’s also about Suze, which seems awfully hard to comprehend.

Yet, there she is on the cover, smiling
as she walks down the street with Dylan
on the cover of The Freewheelin Bob Dylan.
