If I offered an honest hand
in support
to another
Could I be salve ?
or would I be a raving influence ?
Certainly
I am not solved ..
Have I ditched enough of my sickly inclinations
to tackle another with some genuine ability ?
I approach someone
and offer help
I've sounded sincere
and they seem grateful
I circle my pupil
and begin :
Release the healing
Ideas bratting about the shop
glowing in bruises
Waving my limbs about
like a fitting conductor
I circle my pupil
An rapid expansion of flits and colours
A confuser
An eager fanatic of instruction and spells
Or...
A calming rake
farming a turf
for pupil to retake their life
A stiller
aiding in the simple breath
A promise
Paid back to existence
