Notice of absence from Doggerel Dave
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
Not absent - still here!
Keep Calm and Carry On Poeming. 😂
Nonsense sometimes hits these pages I know;
All brought about by the Ukrainian war.
Why not once more give love and prayer a go?
(Did I just recommend? oh dear!)
Because England at war is such a bore.
Just never mind it’s colonial past,
Its role in the Iraq war and so on:
All resolved when flag waving is steadfast
And stories retold ‘til they become the con..

Good read Dave - love and prayer could turn the scales methinks - hoping my friend your op has gone well and that we shall see you back here real soon.
Thanks Fay - I anticipate my absence to be less than a week.
I'll not pursue the topic other to say it involves a difference of opinion (who knew?😊) with another poet here which has resulted in the deletion of my entry and also I'm blocked.
Certainly the Hippies had it right "Make love, not war.

Was Irony, Andy - no one seems to see the manipulation which keeps conflict on the boil.
Yeah war, war around but this poem turned out super and great! Kudos for this muse.!
Plz also read and comment my newest poem too.
I have a feeling and a corresponding fear that there will always be wars .. sadly that is ..
Wot can I tell ya, Nev that I haven’t already pumped out here before?
Yet all I see on these pages are observations that things are bad, that war is bad, with lack of trust in politicians (should go without saying at this stage) and the only solutions love and/or prayer.
So, once more with feeling I find myself compelled to mention History. Not the kind of flag waving shit which, as I’ve no doubt mentioned before, sees for example, England as a great power which fought off the mighty foe you know when. Questions should always be asked with respect to how the current situation occurred, Otherwise “……. condemned to repeat it” is the go.
Still going on and now Israel and Palestine. Time goes on but little changes.
Yeh - this was just a small part of a much longer dialogue thereabouts (as indicated in the comments above). Yet another confrontation...ah me _will I ever learn? Don't think so.....
