cracked knuckles where backs
straightened for the first time, and
silence was shattered, not by noise,

           RIGHT TO NEVER KNEEL AGAIN.

𖤌 . . The thunder of drums shook the city, electric guitars screaming chaos into the night. They wore tight black shirts, sagging skinny jeans, bullet belts hanging low, messy hair hiding faces lit by broken neon glow. Smudged stained the corners of their eyes, carrying quiet heartbreak. On stage, they screamed with joy met by the wild, aching screams of the crowd. “The World Calls Us Trash, But From There We Rise And We Scream Not To Be Heard, But To Stay Alive.”
　   
　 ‘DISORDER FLOWING IN OUR BLOOD.
We scream in the name of justice, treated
like trash never accepted by the world.

This city taught us how to scream before it ever taught us how to breathe. They see us as broken we call it surviving through sound.

They play one last song, not for an audience, but for the walls that remember. As the sound lingers, we realize this isn’t an ending; it’s a handoff. Somewhere beyond the broken light, someone is listening.

We’d like to thank @ANCIENTTECHNE, @RBENIKANG, @YUUJIMIN, and @YEONJUUN for turning our first rebellion into something that could be seen, felt, and remembered. And to the punks who ignited their first rebellion tonight through word-magic and raw intent: @COANRONG, @PTSALM, @RYUJISN, @BRAVETJOUR, @XICUNN @JUUNZKIM, and @VIOLETWILT. You didn’t just write, you carved sparks into the dark.

As the guitar falls silent, footsteps replace feedback. The fire may be gone, but the sound has changed hands. The punk rebellion is not over, it has just been passed on.

FORGED IN CHAOS, @THEGRITNER.
