Nice, but a little long for marching....you should try an abridged version or no one will use it.
Let's see: during the few months you attended college you read 1984, were very impressed, decided to show off your acquaintanceship with the book. "Facist pig" you got from perusing old 60's leftist bullcrap. "Fuck you" you learned at your mama's knee. Am I getting warm? As for your vow to die if need be, you couldn't get a filling without novocaine.
i read 1984.
i read my allen ginsberg.
my emma goldman, my proudhon, my bakunin.
give up?
we hold our beliefs due to conscience,
not because we will win or lose.
you can't give up when you refuse to play the game.
i'm no child of the sixties. i'm no hippie. i'm no internet armchair cynic waiting for the revolution to be simulcast.
i'm a child of the eighties.
gold cards, donald trump, savings and loan, iran contra, reagan, cold war, racist cops, grenada-beruit-panama, tiennamen square, corporate greed, militarism, star wars defense.

fascism by any other name.
give up?
WAKE UP!
oh yeah, member of the humans,
aquaintanceship is not a word.
just giving the heads up.
Look ashamed! Fidel and Che did not fight for the revolution by tapping at their keyboards. You folks are either pot-bellied coots, or well on the way. Get out their and put your bodies on the line instead of fiddling with your computers. Talk won't do it! Feeling bold won't do it! If you want to be part of the herd, join the other pack animals and disturb the field. I don't want to hear any more whining.
