Be soothed - mellow is his voice.
Take comfort - pleasant is his tone.
Be secured - anchored to his choice.
Take steps - towards his zone.
.
Be open to suggestions…
Give permission to his means…
Be prone to his impressions…
Give way to setting scenes…
.
Be willing - under his cajole.
Rest aside - reason and debate.
Be content - consent to his control,
Rest easy - in this deeply altered state.
.
He has you in a sleep-filled trance,
exposed to his control of circumstance.

A first impression has a lasting effect - it makes a notable difference. In a subtle way that’s who I am as a poet. A ‘first impression’ looking for the gentle ‘twist’ that draws attention to a novel observation.
