Eyes

Eyes that are bigger than the brain Eyes that only see and do not comprehend Eyes that penetrate the deep and dim But brain as empty as the wind Eyes that intrude the life of others But brain that neglects its own self Eyes that only want to intrude the life of others But brain that neglects its own problem Eyes that only see the flaws in others But brain that does not see its own flaws Eyes that only want to see the flaws in others But brain that neglects its own flaws Be not like eyes that are bigger than the brain For you have your own life to fix Better yet use your brain to solve your own problem Than to use your eyes to judge others September 23, 2022
