Babies Don’t Bounce

Babies Don’t Bounce

A Poem by Neville
"

There is no such thing as a bouncing baby, if you try, they break.. those that try disgust me....

"

Babies Don’t Bounce

 

Babies don’t bounce

Bullace are blue

Babies don’t bounce

Bruises are too

Babies don’t bounce

Brute that you are

Babies don’t bounce

This really hits a nerve, and I am in full agreement about the disgust. Great point and great point of view,

Those who bounce babies usually think women bounce too....bullies in the greatest degree need to be locked up in solitary confinement for life ( with the occasional boot put in for good measure.

Short and to the point.Feels like a punch in the stomach to think of the monsters out there.Well written and strong message.

Your brief words prove that poetry isn't all sweet scented roses round the porch but - a way of standing up to the stench of evil in society. B for brilliant, Neville.

Pithy, and to the point! Well done! My only suggestion would be that the "you" of L6 be changed to a "B" word in keeping with the rest of the lines, perhaps, "Brute", as is "Brute animal you".

It's almost terrifying that this could be read in the pentameter of a nursery rhyme. When read and reread, and reread it brings to my mind that "YOU'LL FLOAT TOO" type of repetition. Getting louder and louder. Very unsettling and well executed.

Aberrations, abominations, “Babies don’t bounce.”- what else is there to say? This is written in language even monsters can understand. I hope. Well-done Neville.
