Ode to Anarchy
   
  I believed in you
  For many a youthful year.
  Now, I'm not so sure.
  When some Muslim nuts
  Started blowing things up,
  I knew this had to be controlled
  Even though it was just
  America's collective karma
  That the Trade Towers went down.
  I had to live through
  The chaos in New York City
  For several months after
  And I don't even drive a car.
  Peaceful anarchy, you were my aim
  When I was under forty.
  What I got was
  An angry mess, no thanks to Marx.
  So I've put Bakunin
  Back in his box
  Of the past.  And now
  I just hope for the world's angers
  To be controlled,
  Including war,
  The worst anarchy ever produced yet
  By organized humanity and its machines.
  Still, I miss loving you, anarchism.
  Once you seemed
  To hold all the answers
  To political questions
