After a while I return
Fairly quickly, from determining
That the Fair Isles are not for me
Although now more understanding
Of the difficulty
To order the handmade pullover
These days it is the cruise ships
Whose needs are met first and foremost
They are the regular sources of income
And although they are here today
And gone tomorrow
That is no bad thing; to feed
The instantly gratified well-off clientele
No bickering, no bartering, and
Never, ever, is anything sent back
