Default Chiasms for a rainyday

It's raining and cloudy in NM, and my brain is getting soggy. Would anybody care to write some clever chiasms? Mike Todd wrote this on another board: "We say we have no time to write when our time isn't worth writing about."
Pope was famous for them. Oh, for heaven's sake; I can't find my copy of "Rape of the Lock." I was going to find a good one in IP. Sor Juana used them quite frequently in her sonnets. Keats, of course, has his famous one, and Frost used them, as well.
I'm not very clever, but if somebody thinks of a good one, it might inspire me.
