Introspective Reflection



I would live all my life in nonchalance and insouciance
Were it not for making a living, which is rather a nousiance.

***

Ogden Nash (1902-1971) cited from OBCV 1994, p113

    A clerihew for Ogden:

    Ogden Nash
    Wrote funny poems for cash
    But when he posed for a stamp
    He got cramp.
