The Electrician (Acting Edition)

The volts
Were rigged
For the breach
Left no other option
But it was not the first time
Because this knowledge
Must have been acquired
From previous frauds

Flash Fantasy Poem-Microstory by Jazalyn

Premise: An electrician faces unprecedented obstacles in trying to do His job right, when the current goes wrong & there is debate for substitution.

The electrician
Is right
For this ballast
Provides a long time
For alterations
But there is
Common Interest of Adjustment
Towards the transition
To form a new enwirement

They blame Him
For the deficient current
But it’s not solely His fault
For the damage existed
Before He got the job

He has self-knowledge
And He admitted
He might not be fit
Which puts in doubt
His defense’s honesty
But honors His morality

He’s got to protect
His status, dignity and future
For the polarities cannot understand
As unaware of the transducers
And perhaps what He claims
Is how it worked for Him
In the first place
Still this doesn’t make Him
Less worthy of respect
Because everyone more or less
Has done foul plays

The way they treated Him
Was not right
For they were doing to Him
What they were accusing Him of;
This pressure
Is not easy to handle;
They are the instigators
Of His behavior

The winner of the debate
Seems to favor the key cells
But he declares
It will operate for all
Still it’s unsure
If he tells the truth
Or he wears a mask
To be likeable
As long as there is ignorance
And invisibility
That let space for discriminatory evil
While pretending it’s good

He’s got angelic face
And slow pace
That decelerates the circuits
Lulls the batteries
And restores the controllers
Which switches
The photovoltaic animation
From high Ampere speeds
That enable controversies

But the true hero
Is his companion:
She is so attractive
That you may settle with him
Thanks to Her

She has positive attitude
And She laughs all the time
With a childish manner
Ready to sing and dance
And it’s nice;
It’s her style;
It’s unique
And appealing
But a malevolent
Could claim
She’s overly excited
And acceptable
For something others are not

Sometimes She smiles
During serious speeches
Which has caused controversy
But most possibly is a sign of intelligence

She may have inner thoughts
About unrelated issues
Or it’s her way to show compassion
And care
Or She just silently admires
Her ability to pretend
And influence
Without being noticed
Because let’s be honest:
No one cares for the common good
If there is no self-interest

But the electrician
Is an unprecedented warrior
And even if He’s gone now
Even if He will never return
He will always be remembered
For He carries with Him
The charge of need
Of a major assemblage

The End
