Bajir from Sister Administrator by Semaphora

how dare you not attend to your survival
as if the elements were open for debate
your only nature-given right is to adrenaline insight
under a darkness and a light that oscillate

you're clueless as Bajir at our arrival
to think you understand the balance you protect
it's a compromise absurd to fill the ranks but thin the herd
and give my interest and my word the same respect

I want to see as they did
and feel the surfaces between your ears
but every empire faded
was apex predator ten-thousand years, Bajir

you see a story broken into chapters
all advancing to some predetermined end
but you'll find as pages turn no simple lesson that we learn
exists outside what you internally pretend

Bajir could only fathom us as captors
in your fantasy of star-destroyers crossed
but surely someone so well-read must know that progress moves ahead
like so, no matter how incredible the cost

all prayers for predation
are either ignorant or insincere
the morals of your station
may prove more flexible than they appear, Bajir
