Vests be to man what socks be to shoes,
Machismo men may oft opt to choose—
Vested man beats six goons,
A fawning girl as swoons,
Brand promos ah beggar to amuse!
But as sales graphs reach moon,
And bottom lines blast June,
Market men know there is naught to lose.
As there always is aired an alt view,
Here it goes like a new dawn’s dank dew:
As chest’s chest, and vest’s vest, they scarce greet,
Together the twain would seldom meet,
Ere shirt-less chest was in
In utter tired a scene,
Brands invest now in vests indiscreet!

The metre of course is anapaest, and the format is that
