Aunt history remembers an old joke
About Stalin—the tyrant
Slips disguised from the Kremlin
Goes to a dive bar
Sits next to a common man
He leans close, says:
“So, what do you think
Of comrade Stalin?”
The man
Makes a crook
Of his finger
“Follow me…”
In silence
They exit the place
After much walking
They end up
In a darkened alley
No one is around
No one at all
And the common man says:
“I like him!”
Its the perfect knee slapper
If you’ve known fear
