Song for a Fool by Leonard Cline

Here's the last of Cline's six poems that he published in The Liberator.  "Song for a Fool" is the only one that is expressly political (witness the use of "red" in the penultimate line).  It appeared in the October 1920 issue. (It was not included in Cline's collection After-Walker, published in 1930. To see all six poems click on the tag "The Liberator".  Only two--"Bach" and "Vega"--were collected in After-Walker.)
