Vendor: DRAMATISTS

And pay our rent and not swear in the street
And set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.

-- Jenny Joseph, (May 7 1932-2018), British poet; She is best known for her poem Warning, a.k.a. When I am an old woman I shall wear purple.
