Riots

Many little towns together, London, many of them burning, red against grey, loss with effervescence. Capital liberalism, powerlessness and oppression ; an explosion where some gain a world and others loose their homes.

Is this a war, the continuation of a war, the resurfacing of a disequilibrium ; is fighting the police worth fractured communities, are we all responsible ?

I must act now, because inaction means choosing one of two sides, violence or violence ; I must act to escape the dichotomy of war.
