I wrote this during my Young Adult Lit class on Monday night. We were discussing the graphic novel Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi. (Great novel, by the way). It an autobiographical novel about growing up during the Iranian revolution. Anyway, we were dicussing one image in particular and I began writing this. . .
faceless beings given their keys to paradise motherless boys ripped from wombs
battle is euphoric virgin carnality waits Elysium a perfect destination
torn apart in fashion but blood stains are taboo bodies curve rhytmically bending with the beat
of bombs and drums
pianos rat-a-tat-tat with bullets of revolution
