John, I'd go with "advice now" and "nice now" to keep the fem. rhymes on the odd lines. But please, where's "cut the cheese"?

They all have won and they all shall have prizes.

Uproarious thread. Quevedo would have approved, methinks!

Pedro.

I think that Lucy will permit us
no bawdy rhyme nor borborygmos.

To bank one’s cash, or not to bank one’s cash:
That is the question. Is it wise to trust
To greedy knaves the keeping of one’s stash
Or keep it under locks to gather dust?
In either case the money will be gone,
Soon stolen by a cut-purse banker’s rogue
Or swallowed as inflation marches on.
A Third Way calls. Bring barter back in vogue!

Let sense prevail. Let poets lead the way.
Let’s trade a poem for a pint today!
If working men, all penniless, would trade
The means for life with goods that each has made
Then will the woes of Man be seen to halve
As bankers, with no goods to trade, all starve
And parasitic politicians fare
Less well once forced to eat their own hot air.

To be, or not to be, that is the question
Hamlet asked, but he just wasn't certain
Until later on in the scene with his mother
He stuck his bare bodkin through the curtain,

Showing at least when it came to Polonius
Not to be was the answer he'd chosen,
Though Gertrude opined that his choice was erroneous
As her son scampered off in his Dutch lederhosen.
