Poppycock

has nothing to do with poppies or cocks,
but with Dutch crap;
and balderdash has nothing to do with
a handsome Nordic hero;
and the facile After the first death there is no other
(from Dylan Thomas) is tosh and poppycock and balderdash
of the First Order.

(I expand on this subject in July 2024...)

Too bad you don't like Dylan Thomas. He was a fool, but a damned good poet. I like your poetry, too, Auban, so go figure.
