COMPLICATIONS

A blush can be in the form of an insult
A crash can be in the form of a smile
A bash can be in the form of a praise
A dash can be in the form of a borrowing
So rush not to judge

II
Love can be in the form of hatred
A clap can be in the form of a curse
A pain can be in the form of a gain
Anger can be in the form of a smile
Sanity can be in the form of insanity
So rush not to judge

III
Bad can be noisy in goodness’ silence
…it still changes no truth
Unfairness can reign atop the pate of fairness
…it still changes not the traits of justice
Slavery can sit on the laps of freedom
…it still changes not the importance of equality
Death can call
…while life remains silent
So rush not
…rush not to stain your thoughts with flawed judgment
An open mind knows most
…if not all
…before a judgement call
