What good it does?

I wonder what good it does
labeling something or someone
right or wrong, good or evil!
What if something or someone
ain't either of two but in-between
or without semblance just a facade!
Why hell-bent to categorize
when in fact you know,
you yourself don't belong in any!

I wonder what good it does
trying to fit in a mould you know
is not meant for you, but in case
you wanna shatter it in pieces!
Again I wonder what good it does
me trying to put this in print
But oh yes!I know the good it does
Coz the only good I can ascertain
is the good done by me!

I loved the concept. Yes you are absolutely correct about the people who criticise others. Good or bad can be pointed out in order to make that person go in a correct path. I liked the flow and the tone of this poem. I also liked the last lines. Oh I liked all of it. ☺

Thanks for sharing your views..
I wanted to share that 'being good' and 'doing good' are different things..also we can only judge our good with certainty.. others we can only assume.. :)

Thanks for visiting :)

You are correct :)

Interesting trail of thoughts and questions here. I think in answer to your first stanza, I would say the only good (and maybe it's not good) is that of the satisfaction of satisfying themselves while demeaning others. We find it easier to judge than to dig deeper into the root cause.
Nicely penned 👍

I feel humans are conditioned to think in extremes as they grow up..
But we do reach a point where we realize that each of us are a revelation.. we do not fall in extremes we already knew but a new discovery! :)

Thanks for sharing your view on it!
