I saw the thousands of students gathering peacefully protesting on the whole. Until the small radical elements arrived not being in a distant country. But on the streets of old historic London and spreading to other cities. An underlying current of frusteation denying the stability of a nation. Taxes rising the lowering of living standards the future generations angry. With more elderly living and far fewer young a small core of the mega rich. Fuelling anarchist to violently show their hand governments not setting a good image, As promises made to voters are totally ignored the people tiring of politicians has soared. Companies allowed to make vast sums of cash passing on the costs to the public. Boosting profits and shareholders balances multi levels of bitterness develops. Each thinking they are the ones oppressed creating resentment and envy. Splitting a struggling society into fractions determined to take drastic actions. Rebellion and anarchy not new to man destructive elements that don't achieve. In the end our race can only last if it's one clan working together because they believe. Or is this another cycle coming to the end? The Foureyed Poet.

Society is quickly rising into open rebellion fed up of being pushed around. Is this the start of the end? The Foureyed Poet.
