THE NOTHING PEOPLE.
They do not lie; they just neglect to tell the truth. They do not take; they simply cannot bring themselves to give. They do not steal; they scavenge. They will not rock the boat; but did you ever see them pull an oar? They will not pull you down; they'll simply let you pull them up - and let that pull you down. They do not hurt you; they merely will not help you They do not hate you; they merely cannot love you. They will not burn you; they'll only fiddle while you burn. They are the nothing people; the sins-of-omission folk; the neither-good-nor-bad-and-therefore-worse. Because the good at least keep busy trying, and the bad try just as hard, both have that character that comes caring, action and conviction. So give me every time an honest sinner, or even a Saint. But God and Satan, get together, and protect me from the nothing people.
Anon.
