Socialism Why Not

The UK general election,
folk in the streets with no ********.
The tide did not come let alone sweep away,
when looking at folk with no job its dismay.
But pull up youself people should fight,
for rights, for life to earn their right.
Not against each other preaching politics of hate,
or worse still sit on the fence and tax and debate.
Education is key but who reads good books,
people eat better food and Kebabs get more looks.
Just pull to the left and look after your mates,
fight for them and they for you and then we can make.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
