Limerick Multiplication: Once An Optimistic Optician

Limerick multiplication : Once an optimistic Optician for Elodie Once an optimistic Optician Looked deep into her Client’s vision Saw worlds unknown to her And lost her way back here Client left her in utter confusion or Client left but stark pessimism or Now straddles acute astigmatism or Now suffers from divided attention or Now has gone on a mystic mission or Optician and Client in mutation or Now both revel in sacred damnation or Client made Optician eye donation or Now both sell eye-drops in collusion or Now Client gives Optician eye lotion or Now Client gives lessons in eye motion or Optician gives Client sole solution or Client then rubs Optician in the shin or Optician then throws Client in the bin. © T.
