@ 27.055 MHz: Ad Astra; Reaching To Rescue "Fairy Jerry"
You, who the bullies once called "Fairy Jerry,"
I cannot just leave stranded in my past,
a timid and, sometimes, craven outcast,
met (in those days) with an extraordinary
parental and social indifference
regarding that ghastly experience.
Let me, from this stance, lift you up above
that dank cesspool to which you feel condemned,
and from the circumstances that have hemmed
you into a corner that none can flee---
just because of the way you want to love
and be loved: for this, we have Poetry,
this series which has taken inspiration
from you, and from our lifelong conversation.
