Somewhere in the Neutral Territory on Eklipses...

 

The Overly Cautious I think of them,

Cautious past the point of rational progression,

As they fear the unknown and all outside, they instead choose to condemn,

Treating all those who do not conform to their ideals of the gods as a transgression itself.

 

The Overly Reserved I think of them,

Reserved past the point of understanding,

Waiting in the background as the gods who rule over us all from high above them,

Declaring in their tenants and divine messages that our race is outstanding and without flaw.

 

The Overly Patient I think of them,

Patient past the point of Effectiveness of any kind,

As the lords and leaders of their estates count each gem in their vaults one at a time,

As they Lead their countries only to a state of Ineffectiveness.

 

The Overly Reluctant I think of them,

Reluctant past the point of any form of reliability,

Unwilling to stick their neck out at the slightest suspicion that it can be spread from its stem,

Acting instead with the group, wholly full of hostility towards the supposed villain, the outsider, and the outcast.

 

Mad in their approach to Life,

Why should one let the hate flow through one's veins if one doesn't need it to?

Letting each person act with Strife in mind and greed in hand,

Acting as if each other person outside and their very race, are destined to be stains.

 

Mad in their approach to Death,

Why should we declare the death of one to be sacred if I may so ask?

Of one's moments as they relieve their last breath.

I do not aim to bring distaste but aim to question and ask all for the sake of understanding and knowledge.

 

Mad in their approach to Others,

Why should we take from other kingdoms, when we already let those below us suffer?

As we stab each other and another in their backs, leaving families torn,

Despite how fragile life is for each of us and every being, they only get rougher in their methods.

 

These are the reasons I choose to leave all that I know behind,

The life I had built up and allowed to soar as it no longer aligned to my new design and thoughts I have,

As I move onto a new path and new designs, seeking the deepest knowledge of the mind,

Moving along my travels, to find those who bring forth empathy and who is kind.~
