Future Glance, 2

You will learn of us, Son, when in

the advance placement classes in your school:

we, the disciples of the great Savior, Karl Marx---

and of his most accomplished interpreter, Vlad Lenin---

are, in our various lives' achievements like the sparks

that indicate the presence of the Fire

through which we shall lead all of Humanity---

whether by persuasion or coercion---

to the Glorious Collective Destiny,

in which every collectiven need and collectice desire

shall be fulfilled.  This is the first, best version

that explains our sometimes chaotic politics.

Do not be like that ancient Fanatic, who kicked against the pricks.

He was, after all, a recalcitrant fool,

and---I have heard---something of a graveyard ghoul.



'Coerulescens,'

versified by

Starward*Led
