Beggars Can'T Be Choosers

A beggar cannot dare expect fabulous gifts.
His impolite joshing keeps logical men nervous.
Old panhandlers quite regularly start to upbraid virtuous women.
X-rateds yield zilch.

Interesting topic that you have chosen here. I have heard that saying all my life about beggars can't be choosers. I have encountered some that were really good at the begging. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
