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. 😂
It does not matter what I say or do;
However a thought edged in and just grew:
“Save the Children” - moral, humane, how true,
But also sterilize the parents too.
Bring a child into the world – no not you
When prospects for a happy life are so few.

- Comment from author about the poem: Almost certainly wrong, as it raises the fraught issues of eugenics, totalitarianism and perhaps racism. That thought however persists.

Save the children indeed Dave.

"No comment" on the rest, Andy?
The eugenicists themselves are surely the inferior class of people, not hose they seek to reduce, destroy, sterilise, etc.
Not quite sure what you mean, orchi..... Like to clarify?
Well, eugenicists are horrible - seeing certain people as sub-standard.
Some are, mate - but there are other more substantive issues relating to eugenics and its practice which would be too difficult to debate here, so for once I'm bowing out....
Meanwhile - I have 1.5 children - one human, one half guinea-pig! lol.
As above, orchi.......
An incomprehensible comment from me here! Ever seen a half-human, half guinea pig creature? lol.
No , and I must admit I'm very happy about that. I just wish this weird chimera would at least learn to contribute to MPS in a more intelligible fashion, then I could quite possibly forgive its more apparent oddities , if I ever came to meet it.
Since when was I intelligible?! lol
this is elementary .. since it not only contains an element of truth .. but the worlds not big enough to cope with man robbing it of and wasting its elements .. Neville
Yeh - happy you caught the element of truth......and sad/happy ambivalent that the world cannot cope with man's avariciousness (good for you world - do it) and more than happy at your decision to use 'man' rather than 'we'......
🤣 Dave, I've worked with children for the past 33 years and in some cases I would have to agree lol 🤣
Ah - one of only two sane comments here, Teddy. Many thanks.
After 33 years aren't you entitled to at least a tin helmet and a medal?? LOL 🤣
I have to agree, sadly. Excellent work.
Right then...
👍
Powerful penning
I have ta agree! 💯
Skillfully expressed
woven wonderfully!
Best regards ✌️ Thad
Thanks Thad. I hope you have as much luck with some of my other stuff......🙃
