WELL I NEVER

Author: andrew149

In a short time we’ve come so far,
From bicycle, to atom bomb to motor car,
Global warming, crops failing,
Millions starving, cos, it’s stopped raining,
Well I never…..
….Aren’t we marvellous and,
So very, very clever!

Hi, andrew149,
Wish it were true that we were clever; but, if you never, then where would we be? On a Corner with one less poet! Glad you're here to assess our claims to fame.

So much said in so few words Andrew - and the most ironic of denouements... Good write.

Yes we see the penny on the track, but don't see
the train about to hit us...so utterly clever.

???

Is this the same one of your poem 'bicycle'??? I'm confused but I've read something like this before...

but its title name, 'bicycle' I guess... or did you edit it?

or I am blur?? lol maybe..cus I ate too much icecream.

..so tummy = full, memory = loss.

lol

we were designed for destruction, or do we have a helping hand?
