Misjudged
Standing still head's up
Retrospect greatest pitfalls 
Mass consciousness whim 

Wandering till dawn
Waiting brave for the result
Less breathe heartless beat

Until the mind soar
Now is inexplicable
Sufferings indeed

People grim anew
For the best of all Juries
Render canny nod

Continue service
Captivating voter's wit
Last laugh never ends....

our junior high dance
middle class white kids rock out
to Born to be Wild

girls sitting pretty
standing and doing nothing . . . 
the wall flower guys

the music softens
I only Have Eyes for You
enhances my angst

the boy I adore
rooted with the wall flowers
has started to move

crossing the...

but still Christ died on the cross

Misjudged
MISJUDGED

I deplore judgment
It exposes my self-doubt
Past and present blend

What gives them the right?
How is it I cannot think?
Anger lurks beneath

They are empowered
Due to my uncertainty
Who needs to be changed?

Today I am disappointed
Due to an act unjust
Completely dismissed
Totally misjudged

Sometimes  people are unkind
 Life somewhat  unfair
All we can do is just grin and bare

Our interpretations so varied
Judgements so wrong
Not given a chance before it had gone

Implications remarked  
Negative judgement conveyed
Unfair decision instantly...

Misjudged - Senryu Chain X5
~~**~~
not my intention
nor a bone of contention
social convention
~*~
look for facts I search
I research but get confused
or am I confused

I used to be brash
I used to be brazen bold
no more I got old

we take sides to fight
politics and religion
pray or become prey

hate poisons the mind

Misjudged
the wrong end of the stick was got,
it did not take an awful lot,
the words that were misunderstood,
how could she get it wrong, many would,
completely got this one wrong,
the beginnings of an ugly song,
that would spiral out  of control,
now those words are on a...

Premium Member Hear My Plea
So it seems maybe,
You must save me,
I beg, hear my plea,
Please say that you see.

I misjudged and fell,
Into a deep, dark well
But I rang your bell,
And YOU came, so swell....

What plot is this, what dark and muffled muttering,
so sinister and secret in the morning fog ?
What evil beings are these black cloaks covering,
so earnest and impassioned seems their dialogue ?
How cruel and misjudging to suspect them thus.
Huddled against the chill, they’re waiting for their...

Decompose and Decay
Baptized in the fires of pain
Judged by those with no name
Rise against those who take without shame
Show those fools they hold no sway

Your destination is all known
Six feet under you will go
Decomposition is thy art
For all that’s left is flesh and bone

Impurity is undefined
Listen to...
