I think the poem scans better if you use the adjective “bourgeois” (two syllables) instead of the collective noun “bourgeoisie” (three).

Would be a shame if someone turned this into a sticker and people started putting this on every steeet corner.
That's a really nice typeface.

My uncle used to be an editor of a small town newspaper back in the 70's. As kids visiting, he would make us little metal pieces with our names printed backwards, We'd press them in an ink pad and our names would appear correctly when pressed onto a piece of paper. Those little metal pieces he produced for the local news were all backwards as well and placed in a specific way so the printing press would produce the newspaper. I always thought placing those metal pieces in the correct order to produce a newspaper was typesetting.
That is the origin of the word.
I've used that LaTeX package for swirly things!
