Unseeking Seeker Poet Rhyme

The Echo Returns Not

We see their subterfuge 
A low animal cunning
Geniality a camouflage 
Deviousness concealing

We recognise but judge not
For as at this coordinate
Moving in a narrow ego slot
Baser instincts precipitate

Whatever for them we do
Casting pearls before swine
As they stir the toxic brew
We pray that love may align

Outcomes inconsequential 
Yet no need to trauma bond
Sidestepping the inimical
We flow on with no demand

Our suggestions unsolicited
Find in hearts no resonation 
We walk away love unrequited
Immersed in our own meditation
