This poem hits me hard because I seriously, unironically believe that the realtor in this poem is a scammer who should go to jail, and so are the parents they stand in forhttps://twitter.com/drvolts/status/1322263909743484928 …

All this shit the Boomers say about Millennials not doing our duty to keep the birthrate up Sorry I just don't have it in me to provide you more fuel for the machine Maybe it's better if the machine just shuts down
I guess I'm old fashioned, I greatly prefer to "Good Bones" Philip Larkin's "This Be the Verse", which is much blunter and harsher about what he thinks the solution ispic.twitter.com/JFxUOLb0zs
Oof. Never read this before. Deeply love it. Thank your Arthur.
It’s a great poem, although to call Larkin himself problematic is kind of understating things.
Of course, Larkin being on some level aware he was problematic is the whole point of the poem
