“The Charge of the Sight Brigade
by Stewart Stafford

Gullible’s travels to a scarlet sunset,
Furious volleys at the price of glasses,
“It’s a crime!” the indignant chorus shouted
to anyone in earshot — which was nobody.

Sightwise and sound foolish, nevertheless,
Onwards into the optician’s valley they rode,
No landmarks of note in their myopic haze,
Mere blurry blobs of vagueness and colour.

The queue snaked backwards into infinity,
Grey beards grew long in grumpy purgatory,
Tripping over them as the eye test completed,
Cracked spectacles, their hard-fought prize.
