The title cements the piece.

HEY JONATHAN
Sometimes, the title fuels the idea.

Why does the word "prisoner" jump to mind?

HEY G
Shaved head? Identification on the neck? It does have a woebegone vibe.

HEY JOHN
What, too, shall pass?
Given the current state of our gubmint, I'm finding anarchy (not to be confused with anomy) more & more attractive.
Do you mean that the shaved head/tattooed/wanksta/street thug thing shall pass?
Please 'splain your thoughts behind this piece, pliss.

HEY T
What young, head-shaven hothead hasn't extolled the "freedom" of jungle law only to mature into a mortgage-paying, education-subsidizing, SUV-owning workaholic with three wonderful kids and a wife who knows her around a pasta machine?
The piece is about cultural convention.
