Soyez L'Une

Clairvoyant is the mind,
Who resists outside influence.
To see what is without, 
And not take it within. 

Cynical is the soul,
Who tires of daily activity.
To follow a routine,
And never break the mould.

Unique is the heart,
Who lives beyond its body.
To gain immortality,
In the face of humanity.

Ethereal is the human,
Who against all odds succeeds.
To be an eternal figure,
In the shadow of destruction.
