Could this be ambivalence?
Though benevolent in spades.
Quite the antithesis,
Of our genesis — how strange.
Could be mere diffidence;
Such magnificence portrayed!
Perhaps some suspiciousness,
Wary vigilance — misplaced?
Pardon this diligence,
Such ambitiousness: parlayed.
The future is imminent.
Make your move s’il vous plaît.
