Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

Marx's Last Words

Religion, is the opiate of the masses;
Karl Marx: ended the struggle of the classes.
He is enemy to many; and Buddha to some;
He would influence, many leaders to come.
The world he envisioned, almost came true;
From his thoughts, communism grew.
His ideas at the time, were very funny;
Imagine a world, without any money!
Marx was intelligent, and extremely wise;
Workers of the world, he told them to rise!
Slowly, his concepts began to spread;
His works, are among the most widely read.
Marx’s utopia, would never arrive;
Some, however, wanted to revive,
And put to the test, his socialist plan;
Only a century, would his legacy span.
An avid atheist; he was against theism;
A philosopher, who created socialism.
On his deathbed, when asked for a word;
He said a sentence, the last thing ever heard.
It was to get something, out of his endless strife;
“Last words are for people, who haven’t said anything in life.”
