HIGALAAY
Fireworks
Up above
Painting the sky
One after the other
Dying for the people below
The crowd cheers after every execution
Unaware of the sacrifice for their pleasure
Smoke fills the night sky and everyone's lungs
Alcohol floods the streets and unleashes merriment
The people stay up until sunrise
Or until they lose consciousness
It's all the same
Year after year
Nothing changes
Nothing
This is an experimental poem that deals specifically with... Oh, you know what? Instead of explaining my thought process behind this, why don't I give away 1 STEEM to the best interpretation come payout time? Sound good? I'm talking specifically about the theme and structure. Head over to the comments section and give it your best shot :D
You know what's not an experiment? Voting for 
as a witness. Just do it.
