Perception

How do you see?
What is your perception?
Is this how it could be?
Or is it just deception?

How do you see others?
Do you judge the less able?
Are they family, like brothers?
Or are they just unstable?

How do you see you?
Are you good or are you bad?
What is your view?
Are you crazy, are you mad?

But are you at liberty to judge?
Can't others be who they are?
What if they hold a grudge?
You'll be left with the scar.
