Judgement

A poem by Isabelle Sorrells

---

Do not warn me

Of new perspectives

And beg me not to judge.

For what else could they be

Since these thoughts are not mine?

And why would I not think on such things

To understand them?

Is that not what judging is?

Why would I not think?

For my health and future –

Perhaps as well as yours –

I will continue to judge.
