They accuse me of being a capitalist



They accuse me of being a capitalist:

Because I shook my hornless head
When the priest preached the gospel according to John Rawls.

Because I said, “Marx and Engels should have had glasses on when thinking
To correct some myopia in their communist manifesto”

Because I have Smith, Von Mises and Friedman
Gathering dust on my shelf.

Because as I was coming out of the supermarket, I picked the coin
When it accidentally dropped itself on the beggar’s feet.

Because I don’t leave bones
When eating a roasted chicken.

Because I pay taxes with my left hand
And with money from my left pocket.

I may be guilty of Social capitalism

But of capitalism, I am not sure.
