Here's something Joseph Stalin said
Whom we are all glad is decades dead
"It's not who votes that counts
~ It's who counts the votes"
That may have been true in the USSR
But not, of course, where free people are

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Imprisoned under the communist dictatorship
Of Joseph Stalin,
Survived the horrific conditions
Of the Gulag Archipelago,
And believed that all these
Terrible atrocities happened,
Because "Men have forgotten God."
W.A CHOLT. Copyright Fergal O Reilly. 2020.
30/10/20
Note: Solzhenitsyn was one of the great prophetic voices of the 20th century,
Warning the West against the dangers of Communism and Socialism,
And of the totalitarian nature of such ideologies. We need to heed his warnings
Now more than ever.

Joseph Stalin had webbed toes
On his left foot or so it goes
He was embarrassed by this so bad
When a doctor examined him, he was sad
Covering his whole body with a blanket
So he wouldn’t have to face the fact of it
In those days it was a sign of the devil
This fact seemed a self-fulfilling prophecy ill.

...We just have to look over to Europe,
slowly being overrun by Islam,
ruled by governments that hate their own people,
with ideas more ruinous than any bomb.
And those who would dare stand up for themselves
Find thev’re no real means of fighting back,
they lost all their weapons, then lost their speech,
and find themselves heading down a dark track.
Increasingly wracked by terrorism,
and dominated by modern-day Huns,
grand, old cultures are now facing the axe,
since they foolishly gave up their guns.
It’s the number one move of great tyrants,
they always seek to leave people disarmed,
playing to emotions and claiming that
they’re just doing it to ‘prevent more harm.’
But no fool school-shooter could ever match
the sheer carnage of a Joseph Stalin,
they want to leave you defenseless and scared,
make it impossible for you to win.
They fear nothing more than facing the wrath
of true liberty’s daughters and sons,
to be free we must be ever vigilant,
and we can never give up our guns.

Winston Churchill- the Tailor
chose material, designed fashion
Franklin D Roosevelt- the Weaver
later wove success with Marshall magic
Joseph Stalin- the Color Master
painted the Curtain with blood of soldiers
Adolf Hitler- the Spirit
provided living fear among architects
Victims- the haunting ghosts
precaution never to resurrect from the dead
The world- the watchman
soon fell asleep allowing war without war
So it happened in aftermath
with organic fabrics exhausted, metals served
with professional clothiers on imaginary strike
willing blacksmiths were readily available
Iron Curtain was built in haste
to erect durable peace, security outside the heart

This poem is written by a 12 year old writer. I am only the teacher
Cringy liberal
Waves hands
Yells
Screams about feminist issues
Talks about Bernie Sanders
Talks about legalizing weed
Gets offended easily
Yells about their self diagnosed PTSD and Claustrophobia
Tells you that you are a terrible person and compares you to Joseph Stalin or some other dictator.
Screams at you for not being vegan
Tells you that socialism is a good idea
You tell her that The Nazi’s were socialists
Liberal stutters and doesn’t know w
hat to say.
Finally says a really bad comeback
You tell the liberal to stop talking and that she’s irritating
You tell them that you don’t want to talk to them anymore
Liberal keeps yelling
Liberal tells everyone you know that you’re a terrible person and makes up some lies about you
You talk to your friends
Your friends believe the liberal
They stop talking to you
They ignore you
Basically what happened to me like two weeks ago

MAKE THEM DAYS OF FEASTING AND GLADNESS - Book of Esther 9:22
Today we celebrate,
History comes alive.
Purim arrives this month,
All people shall thrive.
Feasting and gladness,
The order of the day.
History shouts the story,
We live to laugh and pray.
We are tired of kings and leaders,
Who promise all the world.
But become tyrants,
When the banner is unfurled.
The walled city has come down,
The trumpet sound was heard.
God led Joshua,
He followed God's Holy Word.
Why is it throughout the years,
Evil men rise to power.
"Destroy this race", they say,
It will be our finest hour.
Esther faced the king,
Revealed his horrid plan.
The monarch suffered humility,
From Pur the humble man.
We remember Adolf Hitler,
Joseph Stalin and such.
The same godless deeds,
Soon they were out of touch.
Celebrate the season,
Give gifts and love your friends.
These are God's Chosen People,
We support them to the end.

A skeleton walks into a bar and says
“Gimme a beer and a mop”
Show me where Joseph Stalin is buried
And I'll show you a communist plot
My masseuse rubbed me the wrong way again
Fired her though she had good skills
A duck in a bar orders a couple of beers
Says, “Just put it on my bill”
About seven million people are overweight
These, of course, are round figures
Where would you find giant snails I ask
On the ends of a giant's fingers
Studied over four years to become a doctor
But I didn't have any patience
A Buddhist refused Novocain from his dentist
To transcend dental medication
Had a job working in an orange juice factory
Got canned 'cause I couldn't concentrate
Also worked for a pool maintenance company
Too draining so getting fired was my fate
Thought I'd try working as a tailor a while back
But the job wasn't suited for me
Can you please tell me the purpose of reindeer
It makes the grass grow, my sweetie
Enough is enough so until next time we meet
Thanks for your indulgence once more
I will definitely want your honest critique
But please be gentle, I implore
