Notes The speaker of the poem commemorates the influence of the music of Bob Dylan on his youth. The opening verse of the poem contains explicit references to the Cold War, nuclear armaments, and the Vietnam War, with a likely reference to the infamous picture of Kim Phuc and other children after a napalm attack in Vietnam.
