Residuals for Growth

Lend me a dribble of water that I may sanctify
the defiled dryness of my spirit.

Spare me a speck of dust that I may cloud
my increasing doubt.

Pass me an ort of meat that I may nourish
my now enfeebled mind.

Apply on me a sliver of balm that I may soothe
my ailing drive.

Residues, though, these may be,
they will put me in good stead.

For the battles ahead.
