The Blind Swimmer

The protocol when swimming Is to circle in a lane. At least that’s what my husband says; From swimming I refrain. You swim a lap and touch the wall Then circle and return, As all new members in the pool Will very quickly learn. The lanes are also designated For the fast or slow Or in-between and every swimmer Knows where he should go. Yet sometimes, in the slow lane, Someone’s sticking to the side. The rules of circling around He simply won’t abide. He bumps the other swimmers Who, at first, all seem to mind, Until they figure out that this Is someone who is blind. So what should the solution be? Accommodations made? The needs of one surpassing all When justice has been weighed? I have no answer, but opinions Certainly will clash, The end result most likely Passed along with quite a splash.
