begin this way?

On riots:

1. They wanted to get rid of corruption; he wanted to get rid of me. Neither provided easy solutions. The "getting rid" of corruption would require an overhaul of the government. The "getting rid" of me would require a complete overhaul of something else.

2. ... because these rain droplets fall from the clouds like tears. They form out of heaviness. They collide. They break apart. You wonder if anyone else thinks about the beauty of raindrops.

3. thousands line the streets in distinct colors, distinct shapes.

4. The city clamoured in anger. She was in pursuit of silence or peace. This is what she said to you. She speaks in hushed tones.
"Shh," she says "Don't you get it? it hasn't happened yet."
"I know," you say in more than an honest whispher. " I keep waiting for this."
THIS-- but, you don't know in fact you have no idea that in a few minuts a riot will break out.
