on May-Day 2012

Awaken, slumbering masses of the world, and unite as one! Today is our day, and this year is our year. Let us read the Communist Manifesto, and the Declaration of Independence, gaining from their few pages such common purpose as to unite us all. Let us fight, side by side, to secure the rights that we liberated and emancipated persons deserve equally. Let us combat corruption, avarice, sloth, and pride – first in our own lives, then in our families, communities, societies, and nations. Let us foster a spirit of cooperation, a zeal for self-sacrifice, a yearning for self-sufficiency, and a love for all things living and inert – first in our own lives, then in our families, communities, societies, and nations.

Together, friends, together we can beat back the rising tide of hatred and discontent that still threatens to swamp our hearts with fear; together, we can rid the world of the pettiness of conspicuous consumption, of the cruelty of wage-slavery, and of the fallacy of unchecked environmental degradation; together, we can truly make of many, one, of all the different peoples of this earth One People sharing equally – with full stomachs, clothed backs, and bright and shining smiles – of her lush and abundant gifts. So, on this perfect, sunny Spring day, let us fill our hearts with joy, basking in the glow of our growing righteous fury.

Mahalo.
