Headmistress's office

the office of the headmistress is maybe beautiful.

boot has only been there once before (when he first came to Hogwarts) and would have liked to have looked around a little

but all boot saw was the carpet,

and his own bare feet

and the boots of the great and powerful wizard

he had a cane with a silver snake

he had long hair, almost white

boot only saw that little when he first came in

didn't dare to look again

because he could feel the man staring at him
the snake on the cane staring too

boot was brought to him so that he could whisper to the great man

that boot is low

a thousand times more low than the great man is high

the man is a great and wonderful wizard
and terrible in his power when mudbloods forget their place

but boot always knows his place

boot told the wizard so

boot wonders a little why the great wizard wanted boot to tell him

what everyone knows

that boot is nothing

boot is no one
