Limerick Multiplication: Once An Optimistic Optician

Limerick multiplication : Once an optimistic Optician

   for Elodie 

Once an optimistic Optician
Looked deep into her Client’s vision
Saw worlds unknown to her
And lost her way back here
Client left her in utter confusion
                          or
Client left but stark pessimism
                          or
Now straddles acute astigmatism
                          or
Now suffers from divided attention
                          or
Now has gone on a mystic mission
                          or
Optician and Client in mutation
                          or
Now both revel in sacred damnation
                           or
Client made Optician eye donation
                           or
Now both sell eye-drops in collusion
                           or 
Now Client gives Optician eye lotion
                           or
Now Client gives lessons in eye motion
                           or
Optician gives Client sole solution
                           or
Client then rubs Optician in the shin
                           or
Optician then throws Client in the bin.
