People's Jury
Location
A universe so massive,
an earth so large,
its nations with great strength,
its people full of thought,
its rights hold great weight,
but, may I ask:
Why is there so much hate?
Perhaps it was what we ate,
or what we did not,
as we as a society have the audacity to
judge those in either situation
without any thought, remorse,
or hesitation.
A generation sexually driven,
where looks and popularity
are capitalized like
books and DVDs
at a store.
The people affected, however,
do not know any more
than that they have troubles
no one can understand,
as the generation before them
will fail to listen and just backhand
what they do not want to listen
discuss, or see.
I am flawless in my skin,
fine with my religion,
and in love with my kin
while who, may not listen,
will not judge me for my looks,
mistake my books,
or criticize this hook.
My belief in myself
exceeds my love of life.
We all have a purpose.
Many throw it away,
while there are those who suffer.
The ones who sit and cry
while they attempt to buffer
the advances made
and swears thrown.
I question these people:
Why not make your goal
to help those in trouble,
and make it a role.
I envision myself as someone
better than others see,as my destiny
is what has lead me
to my innate success and longevity,
and perhaps the brevity
of this poem
by which I swear is my ultimatum -
must I make it verbatim?
Do not judge others
like a people's jury.
Those judged are always in worry
that they are not satisfactory
to anyone at all,
how must it feel to make someone fall?
I am flawless because of my ability
to make corrections,
to my old misconceptions,
and ignore the society that had, unfortunately,
once ruined me.
If education is key to modern success
then we must confess
that our envy, jealousy,
and distress
is all but useless.
Why do those who work hard in school
get called fools,
when we ourselves
are what we say.
This judgment will haunt
us and consistently
remind us that we are the
"mislead" generation.
Hear me out,
you who suffers is not as lost
as I once was.
My determination
has my proved the culmination
of my life thus far to be
more worthy than what society
and this generation make of it.
With these words I say,
prove yourself to be flawless,
undervalued, and then improve on it.
So, take these words I was once told
and apply it - just do not reinvent the wheel
and take these words as some kind of longwinded spiel.
