Bob Dylan sang tonight, live from the White House, and I felt transformed by the words and by the memories of a whole flood of words and sights and sounds..."there's a battle outside/And it is ragin'/It'll soon shake your windows/And rattle your walls/For the times they are a-changin'..." Forty-six years on, and that battle is still outside--and still inside me, and maybe inside all of us--and still raging.

Words from a distance…
In time, not space…and the times
Are changing again
