Poser or posing?
Tinker brought up this rhyme for me:
Rich Man, Poor Man, Beggar Man, Thief,
Doctor, Lawyer, Indian Chief.
It turns out that another version is
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Sailor,
Rich Man, Poor Man, Beggar Man, Thief
And I had forgotten AA Milne’s version called Cherry stones:
Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor, rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief,
Or what about a cowboy, policeman, jailer, engine driver, or a pirate chief?
Or what about a ploughman or a keeper at the zoo,
Or what about a circus man who lets the people through?
Or the man who takes the pennies on the roundabouts and swings,
Or the man who plays the organ or the other man who sings?
Or what about the rabbit man with rabbits in his pockets
And what about a rocket man who’s always making rockets?
Oh it’s such a lot of things there are and such a lot to be
That there’s always lots of cherries on my little cherry tree.
Now I’m going to have to play with a version with some current jobs:
What about a tweeter, a twerker, a medical AI?
Influencer, programmer, cooker of meth highs?
Oops, that might not be the children’s version.
