Muzzled Socialism Poem by Margaret Alice Second

Expecting a global reset: two possibilities
on the Internet the socialist alternative will
take everything we own, leave nothing in
its place - another possibility entails a new
monetary system backed by gold - please,
please put us back on the gold standard -

Please allow us to own our own house, car
and bank account, deliver us from socialism,
from a system where we try to pull ourselves
up by our own bootstrings - it never works -
deliver us from evil, from communism, from
globalism as muzzled socialism…
