Don'T Judge Me

Don't judge me
If you can't feel me 
Don't point accusing
Fingers at me
For  you point one finger
At me 
Four fingers 
point back to you

Don't judge me 
If you can't feel me 
Don't cast the first stone
For you don't feel
My grief
Either do you 
Know my joy 
Who wears the shoe
Knows it better

Don't judge me
If you can't feel me
Don't crucify me
For am not for 
Your play 
Your motives are clear
Like you never thought 
I could realise

Don't judge me
If you can't feel me
I wonder how you know
I was wrong 
And speak words 
So sow to my
Ways

Don't judge me
If you can't feel me
Why you worry
About my way
Or Is African not
Routed by hunters
For am not the 
First or last writer that 
Write poems about the
Life in the third
World 

Don't judge me
If you can't feel
Me
Then you need a walk
With me 
To the jungle
Where life itself 
Exist to terror
Day by day
Night by night

Don't judge me 
If you can't feel me
Don't block me
My ways are best
 Known By me
Your ways are best 
Known by you

Don't judge me
If you can't feel me
At list allow me to feel
While you keep 
hating on others
All time, don't forget
Life is all about everything
You and I 

Don't judge me
For is obvious
That my kind 
Is who I am
So when I feel
Try to feel 
What I feel
Before you open
Up on me
To mock me

Don't judge me
For l love to 
Live freely as 
Nature permit
when I do 
What I do
I expect at worst 
Your compromise 
As a good friend
Don't judge me
