Passing cars leave you feeling stupid.
Arms you wave for help, as you're stranded in
rain and cold with an exploded tire;
and your child sleeps, sheltered, with no 
car seat.  It was me who stopped
'Long the median, confused you, helped you
early that morning.  
That none other did stop
except me I explained: Helping makes you vulnerable. Everyone is afraid, and Looks to their own.

You even furnished me with a new label
to explain to yourself why I stopped.

Uxor, pater, doctor, now helper.
I will be back, but I was wondering in the meantime if that is a typo in your title?  It says, "Helfer".  Did you mean "Helper"?

No, it's German for helper.  For some reason couldn't get the German word out of my head.

This is .... Maybe a bit too experimental or undercooked. I am playing with languages a little.  Just a little.  There's some also some Latin, and it's an acrostic for paraclete, also helper.
