Been running a serial at The Kenyon Review Blog called Money Getting. It's a verse digest of P.T. Barnum's The Art of Money Getting (1880).
Here's a sample of how a verse digest works...
Original sentence:
"It is a slavish position to get in, yet we find many a young man, hardly out of his "teens," running in debt."
"It is a slavish position to get in, yet we find many a young man, hardly out of his "teens," running in debt."
That sentence digested in verse:
a slavish position
running in debt
a slavish position
running in debt
