From the Socialism or Your Money Back blog
Social Truth
What is truth?’ Is an immemorial
Question posed by Pilate, and still a sage
Query this secular social media age
That’s dominated by the spectacle.
Don’t let bare-faced fact tarnish an image
Fostered by some present day potentate,
Determined to determine others’ fates
As he pompously struts his national stage.
Meanwhile, red hobgoblins haunt the courts
Of public debate, their schemes and schisms
Practically confusing socialism
With nostrums, redundant and out of sorts.
While potentates will secure their capitals
For as long as the spectacle holds.
D. A.
