The quote " I will not dance to the bombs because every one is dancing" is confusing because is it meaning she will not run from bombs, she is not happy, or just does not care. I also think that she was trying to be different. "i will create my own drum, our chanting will be dancing, our humming will be drumming." i think that that means that she will go to war since that the drums before were war drums and that their war will not through violence but through music. "this heart beat is louder then death" struck me because it reminded me of the person that was burned to death and made a revolution for a random reason because his death was louder than a heart beat.
"Rhythm is half silence" is in rap and war they have rhythm."language can not math me" is a struck me because i agreed to it and also you can not say this with out something popping in to your head. "do not fear what has blown up" is talking about war and violence like marjane had to grow up with war and her neighbors house blew up. "smoke where once was flesh." was talking about the violence of revolution and war because the burning man and also when the people are bombed in war there is smoke after explosion
part two
they both have defined revolutions as an act of war. "sky where once was steel." it is talking about the world trade center and in Persepolis marjanes neighbors house was hit by a missile and was destroyed. "smoke where once was flesh." that was also talking about the buildings being destroyed in war and burning rubble of buildings. "or that evil is as simple as a flag and words on a page." is representing the revolutionaries revolting because they are being treated unfair. "women will have to bury children." is talking about war because the old do not go to war but the younger generations do and are killed or have post trauma after seeing their friends die in front of their eyes.
