M stopped by, wanting to talk.
I was flattered.
A Priest must have an enviable job,
Filled with humility shattering requests.
Becoming a knight of the round table
Is likely to create a disastrous self-assurance,
Floating on bravado.
Did I help M? Was that really my intention?
If I listened to my sagacious comments
I would perhaps have better understood
Their real value, or lack thereof.
At least M looked better when she left.
If you’re lucky enough to have someone you know
Ask for help, let them explain.
If you pay attention they may find
A perfectly acceptable way forward.
