    the jury

    Who are you to judge me.
    Judge me not on looks nor brains or social status.
    What will you judge me on.
    My clothes.
    My cars.
    The house.
    The money.
    Judge not me, but yourself for judging me that way.
    Who are you too look at my wife
    My kids
    My white picket fence.
    Why must you compare yourself to me
    This is my life
    You have your own life.
    Let me now judge you on your tattoos.
    Your musical preferences.
    Your night clubs/
    Your three hot's and a cot
    Your not a friend
    Why should i care what you say, what you feel, or even care.
    You've judged me , and i you.
    Now we lie here six feet under side bye side with flowers on our birthdays.
    Weren't you glad you judged me.
    You didnt even know me.

    i think everyone should read this, it is great. i love the way you roll through the everyday dogma of judgements from those whos opinion matters about as much as a whisp of stagnant air. 10 from me...

    If someone were to judge your poem a 9 would that mean something to you? Enjoyed this.

    Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

    Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
