The Cool-Colored Glass 



Mirrored lenses change perspective

We see out of them with new directive

For everything is colored in cooler shade

And the edges are then sharpened by the trade



When we remove them, we warm all of the tones

But the edges are no longer so-well-honed 

The trade-off we make - to reduce the overall glare ...

Polarizing the sun's effect - permitting our stare



For, without the mirrors, the eyes can be seen

But polarizing glass cuts off others, clean

So we can look wherever we choose to ...

And nobody else can then accuse you ...
