Socialist Sonnet No. 63

 X Marks the Spot

 

Election’s due, the ballot box beckons,

Time to campaign for a radical change,

To advocate what presently seems strange,

To no longer count as capital reckons

By giving votes real value to exchange

A society posited on greed

For a better one that accounts for need.

There’s a revolution to arrange,

A revolution of thinking, not force,

A revolution in how we all live,

Take what we need and give what we can give,

With the whole world as our shared resource.

Such is the message most workers won’t hear,

The message capital has most to fear.

 

D. A.
