Bifocalism for the Masses and, Like, Stuff
Bifocals – the upper lens sees far away
The sun and the moon and the dancing stars
All in their appointed places above
Great mountains and oceans and thunderstorms
Bifocals – the lower lens sees the end of your nose
The sweep hand dancing around your Timex watch
The book you are reading, the book you are writing
Your thoughts encoded in orderly lines
Bifocals – both lenses balance your sense of vision -
But take the stairs with care and precision!
