Tell me this, benighted friend, now that your union has been
Broken, now that you can't speak your mind, and everything
Grows more expensive; you can't see a doctor, and you can't
Afford a place to stay, was Stalin even half so bad as Trump
And his disgusting minions? Check the various statistics.
Who was healthy? Who was housed? Russia raised itself
From dismal backwardness and poverty to something like
Prosperity. Where we are, life goes whirling backward.
Communism, I suggest, would turn the whirl. We'd move
Forward. We'd watch fascists ground up, and, upon
The compost they'd provide, we would fashion better lives.
Believe me, Stalin's failings, and we've all been made aware
Of them, are minor. Look what Trump has done, and Hitler,
Franco, Mussolini. Fascists squeeze you, like a lemon, hoping
To enrich themselves, while communists look after you.
You have a choice. Go on this way, or choose a better life.
