JudgMental…

I extracted it of the throat of society

So that you can think

That I am an idiot and you are not

Whereas the opposite is true

*

When unknown sins are committed

On others waiting in vain

I am not there so you can talk

About what I did and what I didn’t

*

Yet there is nothing within range of my judgment

That went unfiltered straight into your gob

And you deserved it, every disdain

For my mind was made to defend itself

*

From the illiteracy and immaturity of age

Poor skills of elevating themselves

To the glory of the only ones

Who can elaborate on the subject

*

Sufficiently

But we know that’s bullshit, taking a piss

What should not have happened and yet provides

Raw material for me to try

*

Twist and turn this impossible disease

Into a more recognisable reality

Where I could live

Without obstructing my view

*

And throwing away rotten fruit

Of the society lacking

A critical eye on themselves

In this day and age of prevailing ignorance

*
