Ok this isnt really about every day teen life, but im a teen and its part of my life, so.

Anyway this is inspired by the protests and actions of people fighting for a new world, free from opression.

If you need any background on this, look into the anti G8 protests in genoa, italy


Notes from Genoa

one line
the separation
between the people and the dream
a time ahead
against the order
a self reliance
free, no borders
a look ahead,
yet over shoulders

Charge!

Spontanious, reaction
stench of fear
Down with the old
down with YOUR new
authority
a lie
the line
stretched, not broken
a call
Death
still as a swamp

Retreat

a battle lost
dead
one shot
a communtity morns
the world
stunned
no lies anymore
your sins on film
no questions

Regroup

Movement,
amassed, we lie
the night will come
bigger, faster
submit
its your turn now
we lived repressed
its your turn now

Charge!
