Judgement

by Penned Parodist   Jan 3, 2021


You sound like the friends I am supposed to know
The past I’m impugned to carry in tow

A guilt possessed by what you have sewn
A fictional throne for you to sit upon

Power perceived by tropes you say
Dissolved in knowing its true cliche

For some we must focus on what’s relative
For you a convenient distraction that is decorative

The facade gives you high ground
Privilege of altitude which hears no sound

Be careful of judgements made in thin air
These judgements wreak of a familiar stare

When your conscience finds honesty
You will realize you aren’t looking upon me

    Great write - enjoyed the flow and structure too.

    In your fourth line from the end, it says be care of judgements, should this read be careful of?

    Nicely worded. If words are deceitful, they will unravel in the presence of truth.
