It is hollow help; because it’s inaction.
It might help the beseecher…by a fraction.
To me, it is hiding from work to be done.
It’s a cry to heaven, when the gig’s square one.
It’s passive action; abdicating your will.
It’s falling to your knees when the chore’s uphill.
It’s making your problem somebody else’s.
You’re betting with nothing…& zero welches.
There’s beauty & horror in all living things.
There’s plenty to do on the ground without wings.
