When I realized that Animal Farm was a metaphor for the Russian Revolution I also realized it was a good one, extreme revolutionaries, who would do anything for power, truly are animals.
The worst of the animals, Napolean, is related to the abominabal leader, Joseph Stalin. This relation is brilliant in so many ways. Both wanted to expand the glory of their countries through expansion of territory, propaganda, secret police, anything at all. When reading the book an extreme feeling of hatred arises toward the animals like Napolean.
After realizing the book is a metaophor for the russian revolution, the same feelings are felt for men like Stalin, who sacrificed anything for so called "utopias".

Cross Examination
I cant imagine why anyone in the world would want to question me about anything. I just might be one of the most boring people to question or inquire thanks to my boring and so very predictable answers. How are you doing today Peter? Good.
In order to actually answer this question I look to a lower, more elementary level. If one was to enter my home they may wonder why there are 8 guitars in the house with only 4 eligible players. I often wonder myself why we own 8 guitars.
To others a 2:1 guitar to person ratio is absolutely unnecessary which would defiantly make for an interesting cross examination.

What to Celebrate
Someone might ask:
What to celebrate?
Well, you can celebrate...
a loss of weight
the turn to eight
your heads on strait
a positive fate
a peaceful state
a double date
an open gate
a loss of hate
a well played debate
a beautiful estate
a new-found soul mate
or an exelcelent trait!
Isn't great
to celebrate?

Mask Poem
I wear the mask that can hide and conceal
The wieght is to great like an automobile
It's rise to power was much to fluid,
so no one seemed to take notice
that now we all share the same fate
because it's power is much to great
So now united we must be
in order to be free.
