Example Poem

Was I Judged?      (La Germania)

Accepting people as they are to me

has made my life a fun and fine affair.

I find surprises happen when you care.

An honest interest sets many free.

The dullest stranger has a history

that may astound, amaze, and entertain,

a history they're happy to explain,

to work through how today has come to be.

A page long post you sent with this refrain:

"Refrain from judging people sir; just wait,

and walk in shoes that led them to their fate."

That you would think I would not caused me pain.

I'm thankful that your post was boiler plate.

There's no room left within my heart for hate.
