Three Marxist Essays

Three Marxist Essays


Homosexuality and Marxism


There should be no rules for this but it should be
simultaneous if at all.
Homosexuality is essentially being alone. Which is
a fight against the capitalist bosses who do not want
us to be alone. Alone we are dangerous.
Our dissatisfaction could ruin America. Our love
could ruin the universe if we let it.
If we let our love flower into the true revolution
we will be swamped with offers for beds.



The Jets and Marxism


The jets hate politics. They grew up in fat cat society
that didn't even have a depression or a war in it. They
are against capital punishment.
They really couldn't care less. They wear switch-blade
knives tied with ribbons. They know that which runs
this country is an IBM machine connected to an IBM
machine. They never think of using their knives against
its aluminum casing.
A League Against Youth and Fascism should be formed
immediately by our Party. They are our guests. They are
ignorant.



The Jets and Homosexuality


Once in the golden dawn of homosexuality there was
a philosopher who gave the formula for a new society -
"from each, according to his ability, to each according
to his need."
This formula appears in the New Testament - the
parable of the fig tree - and elsewhere.
To continue the argument is fruitless.
