Praise of Communism
           By Bertolt Brecht

It is reasonable.

You can grasp it. It’s simple.

You’re no exploiter,
 so you’ll understand.

It is good for you. 

Look into it.

Stupid men call it stupid,
 and the dirty call it dirty.

It is against dirt
    and against stupidity.

The exploiters call it a crime.

But we know:

It is the end of all crime.

It is not madness but
The end of madness.

It is not chaos,
But order.

It is the simple thing
That’s hard to do.
