Re: Environmentalist tells Hua Hin tourism operators not to panic about "smog"

Nonsense poem by Lewis Carroll

The time has come,' the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
Of cabbages — and kings —
And why the sea is boiling hot —
And whether pigs have wings.'

Nonsense poem by D-M

Hua Hin was enveloped in smog
When from the depths of the fog
There came a faint cry
"Heeeelp, I don't want to die!"
It was oakdale, stuck on the bog.
This is the way

"The end is nigh", young Somchai said
Squinting through the mist, his eyes hot red
The terror was neither
The fog nor the fever
But that bloody odes were filling this thread.
I don't trust children. They're here to replace us.

This is my story
As you can plainly see
Never let a sailor
Put his hand above your knee
The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.

A thread wandered in complaining of smoke
In smog, fog or haze Thailand would choke
What followed was nonsense in lyrical form
But this angered a mod so a new thread was born

The Bangkok Elite
with their white powdered faces,
never sit in the sun
nor swim
with the darker races.

In the meantime
their darker brethren
are whopping it up
with glee,
having all to themselves
the pools and the sea.
