Humpty Dumpty, Why - mauriceling/mauriceling.github.io GitHub Wiki

All the King’s horses and men
Could not mend Humpty Dumpty’s dent
A childhood song
That repeats a lesson long forgone
An egg with a brittle shell atop a wall tall
Who asked Humpty Dumpty to sit on the wall
— 11/10/19

Commentary:

Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall,
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Couldn’t put Humpty together again.

Why nobody asked why Humpty Dumpty did not or fail to or re-fused to recognized itself as an egg and put itself in a precarious situation on top of a wall? Is it not then a waste of resources – the King’s men and horses? I am tempted to just say “Humpty Dumpty, you want to sit on the wall; you asked for it.”
