when we took our slingshots and smashed the glass on the suv
were we suddenly more safe or suddenly more free?
and did the symbolism mean anything to anyone but me?
or did we forget what we were driving for?
i've got a sneaking suspicion that this feels like revenge
and that we're caught up in a cycle that seems like it never ends
and i'd like to believe that i could be smart enough or tough enough to force everyone to agree.
but there's a trade-off in this game we play:
between waging wars and living life as we please
