Note: With sincere apologies to the Bard

All the world’s a stage-coach, let’s rob it!

Try to become a modern day Robin the Hood

Take some but share out the rest of the loot

All will be happy all parties benefiting

Isn’t it the crass and nature of sharing?

To be, or not to be, that is not the question

The question is to decide outright and act

The strength of purpose and will to crack

Will goad others to muster their courage

And move the world on a faster pace

But, for my own part, it is Greek to me

Flair for language brings it to a higher level

Prompting others to try and dabble

Swahili or Urdu are just as beautiful

As English or American are just as useful

The course of true love never did run smooth

Hustlers abound at every corner is a concern

Preying on the gullible and the innocents

Hard-hearted and mean the order of the day

Young or old, hustlers do not choose their prey

O Romeo, Romeo! wherefore art thou

Forever the bayings of a love-sick cow

Never seem to learn but betrayed by all

Frustrated and angry having missed the buck

But still insisting on pushing their luck
