Advertising Plato
With cogent epigrams
He plies his trade
Born before the trams
Blue-book calvacade
In one-track minds
Goading his crusade
Pulling down the blinds
Setting the bounds
Wear the tie that binds
Ingoring all the sounds
Blotting out the game
Counting out the rounds
Last to lay the blame
Always he is late
Never quite the same
He spurns the sailor's fate
The anchor and the pool
The capstan and the mate
He scorns the shallow fool
On whom the rest depend
Deperate to rule
