A Father's Symbolic Death Poem by O Anna Niemus

A woman dreamt her
father had been stabbed to
death by a charismatic Marxist professor.
Upon waking she realized it was
a crucifixion for her conservative father
whom she had always worshipped...
to find when she'd returned home
from her first semester that
she no longer shared his anticommunist
views.

*************************
The writer is a socialist-green-libertarian-fruitarian
but not a Marxist because she rejects violence
and atheism. However, the hierarchies of several
religions have been involved in promoting the
wars and megathievery of capitalism. It is these
hierarchies which have sought to make religion 'the opiate
of the people'.
