Stop the City

September the 29th
An idea that had grown and formed to stop the city was to take place
A carnival in the streets, a protest against the companies and their new financed war
An occupation to stop people at theirs
Peaceful blockades, a traffic free zone
So what actually happened?

The walls and pavements were adorned with colored chalks, slogans, and symbols that probably meant little to the city gents
Some blockades were formed and removеd. There was conversation with city folk and somе music made
But many arrests angered the free, some carried out by brutal police without their identification numbers
All day people rallied with banks [?] as the starting point
A macing at the guild hall turned into a strong defiant sharp force that marched though the streets past the bank of England to the stock exchange, while loud chanting echoed around the tall buildings
People banged on the doors and windows, siege was laid until the horses arrived. But it was spontaneous, disorganized, except for the whispered word. Confusing the lot

The result? The carnival was enjoyed and the city was not stopped. They worked well under siege, even though many visited the carnival out of curiosity
The dull day was brightened, but it left no mark
The next day most walls had been scrubbed of their graffiti messages
But the fact remains; power has been tasted
If you try hard enough, things can work
If you keep on trying, it will
