DOOWAH AND HORATIAN SATIRE


The Doo-wah Application to My Blog is for Pure Fun and Fantasy. I Like to Think it is as Therapeutic for Release of Tension and Anxiety. I have posted what I believe to be Interesting and Amusing and added the elements of Game Interaction as well.

My Intent with Gentle Satire Here, is Tongue-in-Cheek for the purpose of Amusement, and to Allow the Viewer Questioning Contemplation and Thoughtful Peruse.

I Believe it is along the line of Horatian Satire. Horatian Satire is Named after the Roman satirist, Horace; this type of satire playfully criticizes some social vice through gentle, mild, and light-hearted humour. "It directs wit, exaggeration, and self-deprecating humour toward what it identifies as folly, rather than evil. Horatian satire's sympathetic tone is common in modern society...." (as Defined by the Wikipedia)

Donovan ` Atlantis



The continent of Atlantis was an island which lay before the great flood
in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.

So great an area of land, that from her western shores
those beautiful sailors journeyed to the South and the North Americas with ease,
in their ships with painted sails.

To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonized the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.

Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.

On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.

Though gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new.

Hail Atlantis!
Sung by Donovan
