communism is dead
Letter to Republicans
Dear Republicans
Lately the airwaves
Of the Fox alternative universe
Has been filled with pernicious nonsense.
Uttered by all the pundits.
And Republican leaders.
The pernicious nonsense
Is that, Comrade Kamala
and the entire Democratic Party
Has been taken over by Marxists
Determined to turn the US.
Either into Cuba, Venezuela
Communist China or North Korea.
But oddly not Russia
Who some believe now.
Is our friend.
Anyone alive
For the last thirty years
Knows that communism died.
A long time ago.
This is not 1955
it is 2024
and communism has been dead
and buried since 1990.
There are no communists anywhere.
Even in China, no one believes.
In classic communism.
And Harris may be many things.
But a hardcore Marxist Communist
Working to turn the US
into a communist country.
Is not one of them.
The only people who believe this nonsense
Is the aging John Birchers?
Who still screams about the communist menace?
And perhaps a few aging left-wing radicals
Who still believes in Marxism?
So please just shut up.
About communists.
And other imaginary bogymen.

The prompt was to write a political poem. One of my pet peeves is the constant claim among the right-wing that there are still communists that have taken over the democratic party -total none sense of course but they still trot out this tired old meme as it to scare people about the alleged communist threat.
