Sisterly advice

His flagging body a bank vault of tension and nagging tautness

Slumps as taught at the sedative’s intervention

A tip off from a relative he won’t bother to mention

Save saying that’s one skeleton he’s didn’t expect to credit

In this indelible – uneditable – working of his miserable life’s grist

Into something edible for the more permissive general reader.

He went to see her like a seeker to the sybil

He sensed she was eager to see him freed

From Jobseeker’s perceived leanness, the prison of cents,

As would any sensible sister under similar pretence.

He was uneager and could not pretend otherwise

But she proved wise in her own life so he took her advice under review

After much repartee and several untouched cups of neverending tae

He consented to attending an AI job interview next Wednesday

A role training some nascent AI into a lake-draining editor

Human eye versus apex creditor

Queue not a dry eye

Among the debtless Cecilia Aherne types.
