How Can I Judge Poem by victor Ihaji

How Can I Judge



How can I judge someone that sins each day and attends church on Sunday,
Or a daughter of a poor family that sleeps with men all day so bills to pay?

How can I judge a boy that has neither a father nor a mother selling drugs to the community,
Or a girl that works everyday because everyone depends on her and saves no penny to herself?

How can I judge a commercial sex work that sells her body so that her kids can get proper education,
Or a father that drinks each hour just to evade the thought of not being able of feeding his hungry family?

How can I judge a son that goes out at night to rob just to put food on the table,
Or a young girl that goes to beg on the streets so that her poor family can be somehow stable?

How can I judge a wife that gets beaten, frustrated and humiliated but still stays only for her family and love,
Or a husband that goes out of his way to provide for his dying poor family?

How can I judge a wife that cheats on her husband only to get some food because she nothing,
Or a young educated woman that sleeps with her boss so to secure that job she's been searching for?

How can I judge those parents that sends there children to the streets to beg for money and food,
Or a wife that seeks for divorce because her husband got broke or he's the laziest man in the entire hood?

How can I judge that pastor that uses God's name only to get money from his followers,
Or a man that gets tired of life and seeks the help of a witch doctor to make it big?

How can I judge a girl that is in multiple relationships not for love but to make cash,
Or a boy that lies to love only to get sex because his heart was once brutally broken?

How can I judge myself for writing poems that hurt people just because they ask for them,
Or blame everyone for interpreting and understanding what I write as they please?

How can I judge myself for being a loser and a sinner,
Or judge you for being a saint and a winner?

I cannot judge
Neither should you.
