No This Without That, Eh

    No drama without moods
      No parties without food

    No dark alleys without crime
      No ninjas without slime

    No fudge without calories
       No Picassos without galleries

    No thunder without lightning
       No saving without belt-tightening

    No end to these meaningless rhymes
       No stopping ‘til the end of time

    Then again, murder today is without remorse
       Proving that civility has run its course
