Proletarian Uprising


Peace! Land! Bread!

This is by no means outdated.

When Lenin made these promises,

He wasn't just thinking of Russia.

He was thinking of the impoverished of Africa,

The hungry in America,

Those oppressed by Racism, Sexism, and Homophobia.

He was thinking of you, 

His proletarian comrades, brothers, and sisters

Wave our red flag,

Don't be blinded by the enemy;

Don't reject someone based on race or religion.

We are all comrades in our struggle for equality.

The Sickle and Hammer is not only a symbol of the Soviet Union.

It unites the world, 

Leading us onward to freedom.
