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.
