Last night I pointed out the irony that the song Imagine was sung at the opening ceremony to the Winter Olympic Games in South Korea – a song which espouses communist ideals which have killed over a million people, but sung with the implication that if those ideals are embraced, the South could have peace with its communist northern neighbour.
The XYZ’s resident poet was active in the comments section, and happily pointed out the obvious: if there was no communism, we would indeed have peace:
Imagine there’s no commies
It’s easy if you try
No greens to blight our day
Especially no one called SHY.
Imagine all the people
Living without victim groups…
We’ll let the readers do the rest.
XYZ Quote of the Day.
