The Malthusian Problem

Populations increase
In geometric progression,
Causing wars,
Starvation, recession,
Uncontrolled, our planet
Will be overcrowded,
And our world
Must not allow it,
But the Republican
Fundamental Right
Will have the solution
Of birth control
And abortion denied.

Get rid of them,
We ought to shout,
Before overpopulation,
Wars and starvation
Wipe us out!
