# 84 - Left & Right
George Orwell's left-wing views and bohemian clothes led British police to label him a communist, but the MI5 spy agency stepped in to correct that view.

I left the right place,
Turned right and on
The left Bank
Was the right cafe,
Where one could write
Leftist propoganda and
The world.
But if they were right,
What would be left of the
World we know?
Unsure of what was right,
I left the money, the
Journal, the cafe and
Set off to find the right
Path to salvation.
Was I right to persue
My passion, or in the
End would the status quo
be all that was left?
I bequeath to you this
Question: who is left right?
When ever was there not war?
