My family, they used to sit me down and tell me stories of those who rebelled back then. And I ain’t no communist, not any furry, but it’s been a while since I was ten. The stories have stopped, swapped for stricter rules of what i should opt for. My father used to be a musician, and it was his childhood dream. But he retired from it once he turned what must have been fifty-five years. He forgot the gleam, the shine of hope. And maybe it’s just naiveté, but I believe there’s more to life than just unpaid debt.
