based on "rules for radicals" "Animal Farm" and "1984"

Orwell and Alinski both saw the here and now. Sal, he wrote a manual, George wrote a story bout a farmer and some pigs, That both forgot to milk the cow One went door to door The other went high brow Both told us what would happen Both also told us how It was "radical" in "1984" It's factual right now

I'm curious why one who is so skilled describes his work as feeble. This is a tremendous and well thought out first offering. Based on the skill and thought with which it is written I would say you have been writing a long time.

Excellent message! People need to see the truth in fiction. I am under the impression that fiction is the best way to tell the truth...I am cautious of words which are insisted to be non-fictional.
