#PuddingBooksOrPlaysBring down the moon for genteel Janet;
She's too refined for this gross planet.She wears garments and you wear clothes,
You buy stockings, she purchases hose.She say That is correct, and you say Yes,
And she disrobes and you undress.Confronted by a mouse or mousse,
You turn green, she turns chartrousse.

I think that never shall I see
A billboard lovely as a tree.
Indeed, unless the billboards fall,
I'll never see a tree at all. -

Is those things arms, or is they legs?
I marvel at thee, Octopus;
If I were thou, I'd call me Us.—Ogden Nash

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
The door of a bigoted mind opens outwards so that the only result of the pressure of facts upon it is to close it more snugly. -Ogden Nash, poet (19 Aug 1902-1971) -

sticking it to the banks
The words came with a smile in light, unconventional rhyme.
Delicately phrased nonsense.
Witty, intelligent wordplay conveying serious thought.
Below, one of Ogden Nash’s five hundred poems, written in 1935 in the midst of a career that spanned the middle part of the twentieth century.
His topic: banks.
And the people understood what Nash was talking about.
