The unwise, thoughtlessly, his time spends criticizing
the works of heaven's coder


While


The wise, never lets a moment pass, without praising
the infusive cosmic order!

An Albatross Before

I hate to sound like  an albatross,
But Libby does have hearing loss,


And criticizing will make her cross.

Another church experience. She
is roaming around church to see
where the sound is the best.

Trump Not Bright

Trump was not bright when abilities abusing;
Constantly criticizing and could be confusing;
Really repugnant,
Where he went;
May be big moron when people is misusing.

When I look back 
  I don’t recognize myself

Was that me
  bad-mouthing my parents

Was I that mean
   Did I say that – to my sisters

Criticizing friends so cruelly
   always speaking foolishly

Who put that tongue in my mouth
   Was that me...

the thought of you smiling at me
with bold blue eyes
holding my hand
with your worn hand
listening to my thoughts
with an open ear
not criticizing my comments 
with your harsh tongue
giving me 100 percent
when you're day is through
loving me til death do us part...

Geniuses are after wisdom

Clever people are after knowledge 

Fools aren't after anything 


for 


they know everything

thus spend their time criticizing 

everything and everyone!

A devoutly religious man once said to me, "Everything you touch turns to dust when it should be turning into gold!" Afterwards I thought to myself, "Has he really forgotten that it is written, 'Ashes to ashes, dust to dust'?" So now I'm left wondering: was he criticizing me or God?...

Hush, my dear mother, say no more
(Shut up your criticizing, out the door)
I know you love me, want my best,
(You’re putting my temper to an acid test)
I’m trying Jenny Craig, I know I’ll win
(Your suggestions are tantamount to starvation sin!)

Hush, my dear mother, say no more....

Why should we get put down
Who call out a miserable bully?
She who longs for a notable crown,
Finding delight in criticizing us fully,
Picking on folks who are successful
Enjoying our time here at the Soup,
Making for some of our lives stressful
Dishing out nasty like a nincompoop!

I talk to the trees because they never talk back.  Such gracious confidants they are, so non-judgmental; never condemning or criticizing.  Of course, I do realize they talk among themselves; still they keep my secrets.  That’s one of the many duties of trees.

Trees in a forest;
Silent sentinels never
Betraying one’s trust.

Today the mirror laughs at me
My hair is a curly mess
My stomach is bloated

I feel the disease changing
New methods to mess me up
Attacking my mind

Today I am too weak to carry on
Too weak for tomorrow
The pain can spread all around

I see the faces of those who don't understand
Judging me, criticizing me
I can't do this anymore

Today- I give up...

You know what you achieve by criticizing??????????
Nothing

Its merely fodder for the sad
In order to make themselves feel better

But do you know what can be achieved??????????
When the subject is encouraged

Anything
You know the subject actually even gets better

But that is sadly not the way we work
We do not want people to get better

Its the way we justify ourselves....

What A Beautiful
Human Being
you are
Like a precious gem
you shine
for all to wonder
It is a pleasure
to be in your presence,
to be bathed
in your magnificent glow
You are a gift
to all around 
You traipse
through life with ease
never judging nor criticizing
Just living with your
own set of principles
that you keep
to yourself
with grace and humility

Listen to poem:

a buffer between the you and the me
the constant mediator chaperoning

criticizing with its glare and pursed lips
negating the realm of possibilities

as it downplays the fragranced essence of hinting
opting to zero in on the desolation of nothingness

and that buffer between you and me
only grows stronger and louder

Listen to poem:

Chaotic Conversations
(A Matter of Time)
David J Walker

perhaps it is diseased 
it said
	the voice
whispering in my head
criticizing its creator 

they will know
	you know
it said
	confident of 
a pendent timeline
awaiting the charm of the chime 

the tightly wound clock’s alarm
coming sooner 
or maybe later
in chaotic conversations

but anyway
its just a matter of time...

Death killed by his own knife 
A thief stealing his own life

Fear in the closet hiding
A critic himself criticizing

Anger scolded and burning
The head from the heart learning

Lust by innocence tempted
Day by night resurrected

Strength by weakness beaten 
Hunger by a glutton eaten

The law caught and found guilty
Dirt by purity made filthy

Humility celebrated and crowned
A fool of his foolishness proud...

From now on
considering 
everything

I intend to continue to resist
criticizing any country
not my own

From now on
considering
everything 

I intend to continue to treat
others like I would like
to be treated

I have a former neighbor, an older female friend,
who clearly does most thinking from the other end..
Many a time I should put my phone on mute.
Today she called chuckling, criticizing Blinken's tie and suit..
Failing to acknowledge nor recognize why he makes so
many trips to meet with our allies..
If I should regress to this level of pettiness whwen seventy-eight,
please just put me down.
I'd be deserving of my fate.....

Tread lightly and always be aware

That there will always be jealousy out there,

Their whole world evolves around what they want and need

By criticizing others for their likes and not just greed,

To many haters are jealous of others success

So they are not happy and then get depressed,

Because they are lazy and don't want to work

They are to blame so they acted like jerks.
