Judgement

Judgement

A Poem by Preliving
"

A short note on apathy and a failure to act.

"
Even truth can be mispronounced.
Judges judge, but don't discover.
Investigators do, but don't call a verdict.
I sit here, sprawled, doing nothing.

Sure, I care.
Enough?
Of course not.

I sit here, and scribble these words,
investigating my mind
and my feelings
and my soul
and I wait to be judged.

And I hope that someone else cares.

Great piece, makes you think.. we're just vessels of judgement,to either judge or be judged. Motive our cogwheel, grinding the gears towards consequence. Often the case our cogwheel is rusty and our motive is set in the direction of apathy or flaw. "Judges judge, but don't discover"A powerful line that makes me respect you heaps as a writer. Keep writing, you're talented.

I see you watching the news with your tea and maybe a biscuit jotting down your thoughts and its the way I'd love to write but cant - I envy you
You arent doing nothing ! Writing takes a big toll on the old grey matter but its a worthwhile pursuit so dont be so hard on yourself.
Now away and make another cup of tea..
Just kidding with you . ;P

About
I'm a young Irish student of theatre, but I love to write (or attempt to) write poetry in my spare time. Most of my inspiration is personal so my work tends to be quite emotionally based. Any and all .. more..
