Change
Is it inventiable?
Cultures clash and years of tradition are jeopardized
Set in the village
And now, it’s coming
The audience will see
Struggle as traditional ideals are tested
Upheaval?
I think he is very much aware

The author's comments:
This originally was a school assignment. We had to take a article fromt the newspaper and circle words or phrases that stood out to us. Then we black-out all the other un-used words. I was inspired by the Russian Revolution (my article btw was about a play on the Russian Revolution that was coming to a local theatre), the Enlightnment, and current news.
