Troublemaking in the city was our anthem that summer
we spent our nights tagging the city with "love.hope.change" and "misery hopelessness despair"
It's quite possible we didn't accomplish all that much, I mean we really didn't remake the city in our image or anything
but the mayor's gone and our words are still there, so may just when we thought we had the least amount of control over our lives
we actually took back our lives
Maybe we were just play-acting at being grown-ups, maybe the only thing we reclaimed was a couple of dozen stale bagels from a dumpster
