Darkness and noise.
Everywhere, people banging things.
Bonfire.
Dancing.
Cops on the hill, trapped
behind people's barricade.
My camera was gone.
I stared, determined to memorize this moment.
I was sure the world was different now,
that it could never be the same again.
There was no more sorrow.
No more greed.
An end to the madness.
We had won, I thought,
We had won.
My friends at my side, deciding what to do now.
Affinity groups long broken.
Two people still missing.
A local man taking a picture,
he will remember this always.
Here together,
all a part of one.
