  1. Such was the fashion for a short season
    In the far-off days of the merry-go-round
    For eccentrics of high polish to tumble about
    With gemstones tucked in their pockets

    Which every so often they would draw
    From snugness and raise up to the eye
    Ocular pomanders vaguely occult
    Gleaming talismans against tedious looks

    Such an odd fashion for a short season
    On the sunlit quays of seaside towns
