WHAT WE ARE
SIMPLEWOOD FEATURE : LIFE/CULTURE

I just reached skating enlightenment, here, let me share the feeling:

What we are

We are the accused menaces of society

We are the benevolent clan of commitment

We are the attackers of ledges,

The devastators of stairs,

And the drifters of plywood.

We are punk, we are rock

We are hip-hop, we are anything

We are many in number, and few in skill

We are the non-conformist,

We are the expressionist, the controversialist

We are the boundary pushers and the fun lovers

We are the chilled and the laid back

We are individual, we are united

We are the depressed, the happy

We are the urban poets, the street authors

The concrete artists, the illustrators of strain

We are the unjudgemental, the nonchalant

We are the passionate, the bored

We are the suburban ballerinas of devotion

The raw warriors of dedication

We are opinionated, we are not opinionated

We are just starting, we are still going

We are the different and happy about it

We are the people who go out in the rain

We do this for a reason

We - are skateboarders

And we are you.
