Premium Member The Peoples Chant

the peoples chant

old nations at war,
fighting socialism, democratism, communism.

Premium Member Breaking News: He Will Go Away

The Democrats in disarray 
Say Old Joe will go away
And socialism is at stake,
But can Kamala bake the cake
To make the braying donkeys stay?

Premium Member In the Dark

Socialism, a theory of Karl Marx
Has kept too many nations in the dark
   Russia, Cuba, China
   And now Venezuela
Where half the electric grid doesn't spark

Premium Member On the Way

Pausing on the way to socialism
The entrepeneur inspects a prism
  Many colors shine through
  They are red, white and blue
He vows he'd rather die than see it through

We Are Shadows

we are but shadows

of who we are

shadows tortured by hot sun of capitalism

where is cool water of democratic socialism

cool river

waterfall

to free my soul.

TO HAVE OR NOT TO HAVE THAT IS NOT THE QUESTION




The world produces food for 12 billion
there are 8 billion human beings in the world
even with this excess people go hungry...
capitalism or socialism, what is the solution!

Premium Member Dear MAGA

Dear MAGA, 

How is a dictatorship better than socialism?

Explain it to me like I’m a Canadian 
The American way
Sell it to me
Becoming the 51st state

Make annexation sexy again.

Capitalism Is Rubbish

Capitalism is rubbish. Socialism is much worse.
Fascism with nationalism are so bad, of course.
I was looking for nice and positive with "ism" .
Went through everything. And found one- Nudism!

Premium Member Land of the Dependent

   
           This year July 4th came and went
               America in chains, dependent
 
            In NYC, Chicago, Seattle, LA
               Lenin and Stalin ascendant

            No more the land of the brave or free
               Socialism 'redistributes' the very air that we breathe

Song of a Poet

Sitting here writing a 
poem 
I begin to believe that 
poetry probably won't improve 
   socialism or capitalism 
It's just a few 
words on paper 
Some say my poetry is great 
while others detest is 
  Well, I think that I 
will 
continue 
to create 
   new word configurations 
      damn the critics 
 Full speed ahead!

Premium Member Two Useless Idiots


 	       Zoran Mamdani and Katie Wilson
                  I’d deport them if only I could
               Get rid of the useless idiots for good

               To Cuba, Venezuela or North Korea
                  places in which they’ll absorb the idea

               that socialism is a fool’s paradise
                  where thrive dictators, penury and mice

Premium Member Halloween Curmudgeon!

I have no beef with Halloween per se

     Tho' 'tis like a vast guv-mint giveaway

          'Tis a scheme to spread the wealth

               As kids shake me down with stealth

                    I aim to keep socialism at bay

Explaining Capitalism Socialism Ways

When "socialist" is
     governing and driving failure
      of the economy under capitalist regime
        it's not for anything else ... it's for lack
         of expertise ...
   
       When "capitalist" is
        governing and driving failure
          of the economy under capitalist regime,
            It is not for anything else than
             incompetence... !

Premium Member KING IT

Large and in Charge
Royal subjects bow
Looking over the entire colony
Reign having a treason
Controlling ruling ways
From history then to today
Majesty at its best
Communism contest
Compelling and unsecure
Dungan ordeal
Socialism the least
Here by the creed
King IT
Warriors at defense
Guards that protect
Royalty Elect
Take from poor reject
Dictator voice
King IT’s choice

What Will It Be, How Will It Be

beauty salon gossip,
or presidential debate ...
Laundress conversation,
or trump x joe ?
Will  It be :
Socialism where "scarcity of everything"
or liberal Chevrolet fish tail?
Which team are you fan of?
Proud boys
or chicago boys ¹
Stick Man Brothers
or barred at the ball?
cheap proselytism for leeches
or expensive pleasure for the ignorant?
what will it be, how will it be?

Premium Member Mother said ---

what she said could be seen as hyperbole
not to come running on broken leg problem
but her wisdom portioned into golden prompts
saving for a rainy day comes up empty
the free market could benefit by her depth
she’s open-handed and supports socialism
however her intentions were never false
like threats of waiting for return of husband
witticism unsurpassed by comic excerpts
Mother is an apotheotic angel

Recent developments in this time of modernity
Socialism/Communism arose in Russia & China
Nationalism rose up in India, Zionism in West Asia
There was Cold War between USA & USSR
Smaller countries conducted proxy war
There were stiil conflicts in West & East Asia
War on Terror was initiated by America.

Openly Political

political
social-democracy is a dressed-up capitalism
And you can’t have it both ways.
Sooner or later capitalism will take over
By transferring the utilities to private hands

Water is a human right issue so is access
To see unhindered the wonder of nature.

Socialism is about sharing recourses
Capitalism is by taking it and selling it for profit
The two beliefs cannot mix as human greed
Takes over if unchecked

Premium Member Faceless Reflection

Faceless reflection once fair as a flower 
is all the eye can see
now ghostly hollow
we choked then swallowed 
the darkness we can be 

Daunted we are driven still
to find a defining face
forming familiarity’s found 
to follow humanity’s trace

Through glassy eyes of tears like rain
our character lines have faded
Let our colors emerge
from our darkest hour 
Let us not stay shaded!

Premium Member Champagne Socialism

Let’s fix a champagne socialism 
I raise my fizzing glass
Cheering your most emotional
Love speech about poor us
Regardless that it’s just
A past time reverie
I drink to photographs
Where you smile at me
And smiling in return
I freeze in our time
But freezing comes like burn
Cheers, love! We’re doing fine
We were proceedingly polite
Remember this, do you?
Now we are angels in the night 
With our champagne for two..

Poisonous Ideologies

Stalin cared nothing for his people 
Mao Zedong was likewise 
Cruel and brutal tyrants 
Who slaughtered millions of their own people. 

And now let those who espouse the ideals 
Of communism, marxism, socialism and globalism
Learn the truth from the blood soaked landscape 
Of the twentieth century 
And listen to the haunting cries 
Of countless millions who have died...

Learn History of Revolutionary Period!

Learn Revolutionary Period History
Drastic changes, uprisings in every country
Rise of Capitalism, emergence of Socialism
Awakening of Nationalism, revolts against Imperialism
Dramatic developments in the field of technology
Fighting for ideology, fighting against slavery
Many colonies sought independence from their colonizers
Led by revolutionaries like the Sepoys & the Boxers.

Premium Member State of Confusion

State of Confusion



No to progress
Yes to Pence
No to openness
Yes to the camps
No to socialism
Yes to the lemmings
No to healthcare
Yes to healthcare
Very confusing
However
You have the worst healthcare
That's not confusing

Someone wrote his speech
Pay attention
They do not write his tweets
Llies upon lies

Poison ivy infects the land
Everyone is scratching their heads
Some though hide in the sand
Heads buried in hatred's depth

Comrades
Wake up!

Premium Member Pathway of Doom

Capitalism, Socialism, Communism, Fascism.
What do all of these "isms" have in common?
All are dictated by a monetary system,
and wherever there is money, you will find corruption,
among every self serving lawyer, businessman and politician,
who are all absolutely incapable of solving any of the world's problems.
All of these "isms" are forever failed systems.
It's time for all of us to entertain alternate solutions,
or our future will surely be dire on this pathway of doom.
