Selective Empathy

  A selective empathetic is a more sinister evil than the outright unempathetic. The unempathetic is quite small in numbers, and are under more scrutiny. The selective empathetic is one of reflective desire, picking and choosing those to be glad for and wishing to prosper based off of desired personal gain, gain that involves putting others down in the process. This level of empathy is pure submission to outside preachers, outside systems, media, literature, art, and economics, and represents a dark and fallible inner sense. Letting things simply happen, apathetic to their greater truth, nihilistic in meaning, and a walking product of guiding forces around them. A pure empathetic is empathetic to all in all situations, noticing the humanity in all. It is sad to notice the selective empathetic being a prevalent and lauded endeavor, when the qualities of such selective empathetic are thought of also as manipulation. A great contradiction in social morality and personal character judgeme

Life.


We lived by the beaches,
Quicksand in our reaches,
Filled our life with leeches
Before.

Our lives need discussion,
Fearless repercussion,
Devoid of concussion
Some more.

Belief of what we had,
Dissuaded us a tad,
The feeling to be mad
Was core.

Forego our sanity,
The room's profanity,
A lost humanity
Endure.
