This job requires someone who can speak
effectively, with openness and sense.
The organizers of the program seek
a soul attractive, for intelligence
is not enough; charisma’s needed too.
Ability to take correction must
be present, and no arrogance will do
from anyone in whom they place their trust.

So reads the glossy text in the brochure,
but my acquaintance doesn’t see two-thirds
of it. His sight is short. He’s insecure
most every day and so ignores the words.
He doesn’t know himself – he’s so concealed,
he bought their program and now craves their field.
