Synthean - Fashionable Problems 1

A thought occurs...I may have used this title before for a previous project.  No matter.

This is another visual concept I've had percolating for years - and it turns out Synthean was just the artist to bring it to fruition.

More importantly, this is the first time I've imposed on Synthean to add some of his own text.  I've loved reading his small quatrains and verses in previous pics (none of my commissions) - and given the period setting, it seemed like the perfect concept - and Synthean was gracious enough to indulge me.

Out of some manner of consideration, I have included a text free version after the break.
