Lesson 32

Slaves, unbend your knees and spines!
Rise.
Recognize that as cogs of the machine
we are what it needs to work!
What’s more!
We are the oil without which the robot
body of capitalism grates, grinds, and grovels
into dust.
For too long their “helpful” hands
have shielded our eyes.
Their excuse?
The sun is
too bright.
Life is too beautiful.
They’d rather
we lay supine in our caves.
But the flames of fear
are eclipsed by the raging fire within each of us.

We were born free. Let us live free. Or die.

Sound advice. Now, if you can just get them to turn off Fox and leave their caves.
