★ ✮ ☆ “but this land is still troubled by men who have to hate

they twist away our freedom and they twist away our fate

fear is their weapon and treason is their cry

we can stop them if we try”

– verse from an early version of "power and the glory" by phil ochs (1963)

photos: ochs photographed by tom wilkes for the cover of his album rehearsals for retirement, los angeles, 1969
