Is it just me or do you too
find the opposing brief by Seuss cuckoo?
This company inheretied from Suess and E.B. White
and Ludwig Bemelmans their copyrights.
They filed a brief on the government’s side
To help the Supreme Court justices decide
The Ashcroft vs. Eldred case
Which could renew the public domain space
Their claim is shortened copyright slows
Derivative books movies and TV shows.
But their argument seems quite silly
Wouldn’t more be made without their fee?
Their later claims are stranger yet:
Public domain works are just repackaged, they fret
No Progress comes from that, but worse, you see
They fear they’ll be used for pornography!
