Runcibl'd Spooner: Roger 'n' Out!

"To Beer or Not to Beer: Hamlet 3/1"
Ulysses Poe
Original artwork in chemical marker
 and colored pencils imprinted on
circular paperboard beer mat
 94mm in diameter
Portray’d Lairds, portray’d Candys, 
play’d Gravediggers. Even play’d Rice.*
Roger Livesey.
    Our old boarder’s a jazzman. 
Plays saxophone -- tenor -- real nice.
Lodger. Riffs, he.

     Moral:
The piper unpaid, poorly play'd,
will, portray'd so, be made a poor trade. 

     * In the films I Know Where I'm
Going, The Life and Death of Colonel
Blimp, Hamlet and The Entertainer
respectively.
