Call me a Vulcan's Uncle

Douglas Adams had it right
They win because they care;
You don't care, so they win.

But when they don't deserve to Win
You have to care on principle
To save the universe. But that's exhausting.

Apathy is protective, it's the difference
Between Us and Them- Draw it around yourselves brothers and sisters
And spare yourself the needless emotion.

Think, Speak, Communicate and Learn
Use Logic, cold with Reason
The world moves smoother for it.

The extremes of Emotion
Are unstable, unsustainable
Logic Holds Fast and Hard forever.

You can burn the world down
With the fire of anger and reactivity
But at the end all you have is ash.
