Remember, \'\'boo\'\' in some countries is a marriage contract.
This is why I don\'t travel.

This seems a most timely piece with it being the time of the year that it is. That boo comes as a ghostly whisper. Love puzzle poems Dave but I come to their solution slowly much to the frustration of those around me. Surely Shirly will understand.

AI is going to rule the world and eventually kill the world.
Most of my time now is moaning to AI chat boxes and getting that answer, glad we could help, not.

Let\'s face it, if employers think they can get away with paying peanuts, that\'s what they\'ll do.
Getting out of Europe helped the British worker, they\'re appreciated more and definitely paid more.
Bike delivery guys in the dark, no lights, grrrrrr

Well-written, your poem aims to raise awareness about the continued existence of exploitative labor practices and to challenge the complacency of those who believe such issues are relics of the past. The speaker aims to provoke thought and encourage critical examination of modern economic realities.

Dave I can\'t disagree that there are many poor folks working for wages less than what it takes to survive in any level of comfort. I have seen these people group up and pool money to rent a place and buy food. Some have children to support and leave latch key kids with young ones having to take care of even younger ones while they are working. Unfortunately in a capitalistic world there is little concern for them and they are seen as expendable and in fact much of the work they do is becoming obsolete, mechanized and computerized. This group that is marginalized is growing and society has no good solutions for their plight. Your poem brings this to a level of consciousness. Well done Dave

Broaden the argument: Why import skilled workers from overseas? Get the trapped off the roads; train them; the ‘rich’ off their thrones and out, (without their mobile phones!).

It\'s been like that here (not only in London) for a few years mate .. My son had a narrow escape recently when three youths targeted him on those silly e-bike scooter things apparently circling him for quite some time before they found out the hard way he had been British champion TKD for three consecutive years back in the day and is now pretty damned good at MMA .. You make a very good valid and current point sir .. Neville

How many times have you seen someone on a phone just walk onto the road, oblivious to their surroundings.
They deserve to be relieved of them. Didn\'t realise they were going to China, mind you.
The amount of data people have on their phones, shocking.

Dave, you’ve done it again...wit, rhythm, and that sly glint of truth. A public service poem if ever there was one…liberating the “zombies” one stanza at a time. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦⬛

It is not a spate it is an epidemic, especially in cities like longing and it\'s been going on for a few years. They trawl on scooters and mountain bikes and just snatch them as they pass and there off. Then you have the professionals who go out in teams around pubs, restaurants, bars, clubs clearing any phone visible. All shipped abroad to places like China and Africa, but you won\'t see it in the tourist information sheets!!, hope you well

Poetic Licence said:
I would imagine this is an issue all over the world, if you are young now it\'s practically impossible to be able to buy your first property, but it is even more expensive renting, we have more people still living at home in their adulthood than ever before. We hav a property shortage on all levels, but especially what they call affordable housing , which in my are starts at 350,000 pounds, how is that affordable, will leave it there. Valid write should be said about this

Supply and demand.
Cull the population, no housing demand.
Developers sitting on prime sites, governments complicit in allowing it.
Second homes in seaside towns. You can see why you can\'t get a house.
