from Rogue Heart
by Axie Oh
The dreamers gather in Neo Beijing’s starlight district. The wanderers and the thrill-seekers. Those with poems in their souls and secrets in their hearts. All those racing toward the bright, unknowable future.
All those running from pasts painful and unforgiven.
If you listen carefully, you can hear the song of the city. It’s in the sharp, raucous laughter of the kids barreling down the crowded streets, in the heavy electronic beats erupting like great beasts from basement clubs, in the wind whistling through dark alleys, and in the rain as it drops on to the city like so many falling stars.
Two years ago, I stumbled into the city, half starved and afraid, and I couldn’t hear the song. My heart beat louder than the music.

The wanderers and the thrill-seekers
the kids barreling down the crowded streets
erupting like great beasts from basement clubs
in the rain as it drops on to the city like so many falling stars.

EDMENTUM

the kids barreling down the crowed streets

Explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
