Billy Thekidster Poet Rhyme

Birth Control

The total sum of all humans who have ever lived is estimated at 106.4 billion
and 6% of that total refers to all humans presently living.
1/3 of this total population of humans who were ever conceived
is the result of unforeseen or unplanned or unwanted pregnancies.
The time has come for all humans to better manage the birth of more babies
otherwise we will have to colonize other planets in order to preserve our species
after we've established civilizations deep in our oceans and seas.
