  2. Every day there are people in the streets. In cars. Riding buses or trains. We call them citizens. Citizens of city X, Y, or Z. We are all citizens of our country, of our world. And yet we treat each other so differently. So inhuman. What happened? Why did we become this way?

  11. citizens – It means the people who live in a city. A city is just an area that is civilized.
    But are people civilized? Are they? We see the things happening today. Bad things. And one can only wonder. Are we really moving towards civilization?
    Or the other way?
    This is a sserious question. We, as citizens answer. We are the answer.

  15. The fists were pumping into the air rhythmically, over and over. Cries and shouts came from the crowd as they marched down the street, some singing, some crying and praying, all united together in one common goal. She watched from the window. Inspired. Terrified. Staying put. She felt guilty not joining in.

  24. nationalists have evolved into citizens. we crave for a sense of belonging to something bigger than us, and as nations grow and become too large and diverse to identify with, people identify with their cities.
    but trust me, even citizens fight over territories. no one can tame that rage, it is just justified by different magnitudes of territory

  26. She was carefully jealous while debating the idea of human symmetry. What was the purpose of conformity? Should every citizen dress both arms in black jacket sleeves, string a thread of gold around their neck, and smile when the mouth yearns to fall slack against polished teeth? No. Symmetry could not solve nor be the answer to her pondering.

  27. We are the citizens. We are the voice. But somehow we are not the voice that is heard. We are the loudest but we are not heard. We are the ones who have been here, the ones who built this land. But our voices are drowned out by the electronic beating of this new age, this dark age. Our voices are lost in the wave of time.

  28. They were everywhere I could look. The men, the women, the children, they all looked in the same direction and they all looked the same. I tried to blend in but they noticed that I wasn’t one of them, I was not a citizen.

  32. “Citizens of LA LA Land !” Luna Rave yelled. “Run wild! Throw caution to the wind!” She threw her arms up as the crowd roared. “For this is a place without judgment!” She laughed. “A place to be yourself, whatever that may be…. A place where time, distance, normalcy …. has no meaning!” She extended her hand over the crowd. “Hug freely!, love freely!” She smiled. “Peace….love…unity…respect!” She shouted as the crowd repeated her words. “Be lost! Be found!” She lowered her voice with a pause. “This is a Rave!” She laughed jumping into the crowd below who embraced her. The music boomed louder taking the Citizens of La La land through pills of blue and red until the sun brought them all back to reality……

  33. Citizens of America, citizens of England, citizens of Spain and France and Sweden, citizens of Russia, citizens of Peru, of both North and South Korea and Indonesia, too, citizens of China, citizens of Japan, citizens of Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan, all preparing for the inevitable, the human rights raid, I say to all of you: Be very afraid.

    bliss orbits days in many ways.
