As humans we have to judge
As humans we have to be greedy

We all do it
We judge people
without knowing
their heart's desire
Next time you meet another
imagine what it would be like
to be in their shoes

As humans we should not be greedy
to the extent
of leaving one with less
in desperation for love
and compassion

The essence of Human nature
is living with modest greed
We have to learn how to say no
it forms the basis of our identity

The essence of human nature is
using judgement
to judge
what is right and wrong
for the sake of humanity

But in order to learn how to judge right
we must have compassion
And with compassion we will have
a bright moral compass
to stop the ache
and the screams

We must educate what we know
We must educate those who have less
We must educate those who think
they may know everything
but ultimately
we can only grow collectively
by learning from one another
and accepting each other
