Clerihew Humpty Dumpty

The philosophy of nursery ryhmer Humpty Dumpty

Words mean what I choose them to mean,Dumpty said
a woke wonderland,prevails now,wherever you tread

Gary Radice September 23, 2021 at 9:01 AM I read somewhere Brian that Humpty Dumpty was the name given to a canon during the English Civil War! Through the looking Glass he wasn't so much of an all round good egg to Alice was he? :) Cheers - Gary Brian Strand September 24, 2021 at 1:13 AM Yes Gary ,he is an early example of our cutrent wokeism culture.
