Make me an apprentice
an apprentice to reality
(the true gears manipulated to commerce)
and I'll love my paying
my room my board—
useful, understanding
an empowerment of empowering.
But usefulness, understanding, empowerment
are a commodity— capital for the willful—
the blurred-ambitious, the smart...
hesitantly or painstakingly taught
to the blurred-lazy, confused, stupid
like me.
