The sickle moves to mow down…

The USSR reborn

Used scythes Death designed to impale
The demos were free
But if you ask me

From drugs at last
Sickle not seen
Or ivory cast
Baby I’m blessed
You I will not get past...

With sickle I was weaned
Pain of pressing who can stand?
Let no one envy me:
Wine in King's glass....

When was the last time 
  you heard "butter brickle"
or saw the hammer and sickle

I'll bet you a wooden nickel
  it's about the last time
you ate a non-kosher pickle!...

Be not a slave of a bigoted mind 
With crafty heart that's so unkind 
For its tyranny will enslave your soul 
Like a sickle that will rip apart your goal

life is fickle
a bit like a pickle

it will cost a nickel 
for a hammer and sickle

i have a freckle on my face
now give me a tickle

life is fickle
just like a pickle....

Commie Lebron is acting quite fickle
she should rot in a gulag
with this self-oppressed snob
until they choke on the hammer and sickle...

Some looked sickle and some looked spade;
Snowmen on cocoa hot,
Lay forethought spot forgot; 
On each, our kitten made a raid…!

Trickle of Hammer and Cycle

Down theory there has been a trickle,
And are afraid of hammer and sickle;
Trump frown,
World renown,
And again as usual we are in a pickle.

Where the poet died
while writing what,
His hand gone by
for what he thought
Were no more words
than what he got
from on his page
as just a jot
where sickle made
was Reaper Sought!...

Marma laid there, endured Pop’s tickle
Marm got even, swung the sickle
These days, Pop’s a bit less fickle
Stares at Marma’s jar of pickles

When his girlfriend found he was fickle
He said "won't you stay"
She said "there's no way"
As she took his head off with a sickle.
