In verse advice
In the depression and the anti-fascist war
the poor and the weak grew aware of what bad
lay in losing what little democracy they had,
and started to think about getting more.
The majority were bought off
by ones-who-own-and-run,
who then set about working out how best
to get back, with interest,
the money that they had done.
They freed money up
to go where it made more cents;
and those who'd sacrificed thought for money,
sat dumb, idle, weakened and grew poor,
again controlled by those with more.

I like this. I just started reading Mass Psychology of Fascism (3rd Ed.) , it's a pivotal piece on fascism, an amazing source for really tearing it too shreds. It has a jagged pulse. Sorta like Charlie Chaplin style gears grinding.
