An Oddity On Politics

Anyway

Somewhere

To no one in particular

the sage spoke philosophically:

'i was a member of a socialist party

once for just one year

but i am too much of an anarchist

to be a decent socialist

as i am too much of an anticapitalist

to ever be a mingy liberal

yet in my thinking i am too liberal 

to be an ignoble conservative

but admittedly 

i've lived far too orthodox

to ever be truly an anarchist or

to pride myself to be a revolutianary';

as he silenced and smiled subdued then

sighed and quoted a Qaraite from the past:

'I have seen an end to every human purpose';

and then closed his weary yet impish eyes 

as he slowly bowed his head and prayed.

And these few gathered gently joined in 

while high up above in the heavens

this tiny bell began to chime..

Somewhere..

Anyway..
