Grill the poblanos: heat a grill to high, rub each pepper with a little olive oil and place on the hottest part of the grill. Let the peppers grill, turning occasionally with tongs, until the skin blackens all around. Place the warm peppers into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Cool to room temperature. Peel off the skin. Cut and remove the stems and seeds. It's fine if there is a little burned skin left on the peppers. Do not rinse the peppers. Combine the onion, poblano chili, ginger, soy sauce, rum, cider vinegar, canola oil brown sugar, molasses, thyme sprigs, cinnamon, allspice, black peppercorns, and salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 15 to 20 minutes, uncovered, until the mixture becomes very fragrant. Strain and allow to cool. This can be done up to 3 days before using. It should yield about 2 cups. Pour two-thirds of the mixture into a large resealable plastic bag and place the lamb pieces into it. Zip closed securely and slosh around in the bag to coat. Place the sealed bag into a mixing bowl and marinate at room temperature for 45 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours. Reserve the remaining one-third of the marinade in a covered container in the refrigerator. If you are using bamboo skewers, soak them in warm water for at least 30 minutes before grilling. If you are using metal skewers, spray them with a generous coat of nonstick vegetable oil spray. Heat the grill to medium-high. Remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade. (Important: It cannot be reused in any way.) Assemble the skewers, alternating the corn, lamb, peaches, mango, onion, and zucchini or summer squash, and repeat the sequence, ending with a piece of corn. With an oiled paper towel and tongs, rub the grill with the oil. Place the kebabs on the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes. Turn the kebabs and brush the reserved marinade (which was NOT used for the lamb) on the cooked side of the kebab. Cook for 5 to 7 m
