Judging others: A poem 

The pride and ego of being judgmental 

is in one own eyes to stand tall 

Prudence sacrificed at prejudice’s altar 

Proclaimed self-virtue is on humility a war 

The castle of the righteous is in silence 

Opinions like scales must be devoid of bias 

Conscience is in chaos when morals tumble 

Priggishness is a high ground in an egoistic jungle 

Blame is the calamitous murder of generosity  

The chlorophyl of the soul is in respectful virtuosity 

We have four fingers back at us stalking 

when in vanity we do not let our mirrors do the talking 

The shell of self-aggrandisement in demeaning others 

is a spanking extravagant yacht without any rudders 

Judgement, retribution and exoneration are in the hands of God 

The good teacher only mentors and guides, and evens out the odds

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
