People known to have shown their indifference,
Should not expect the ones accustomed...
To accepting it would express a noticing,
A significant change made that displays concern.

Since once indifference is shown to be implemented,
With a cementing of it done to accept...
Those known of it to be expressed eventually move on,
With their eyes wide open and their lives prioritized.

Lawrence S. Pertillar
