Image for the poem The World is my Judge

The World is my Judge

For the past three years I've sought
To live without people on my back
Or down my throat for things I lack

My entire life I've been taught
Things I now distrust and question
Now I try to live to my own discretion

I can't change the people around me
It's a joke to think that I could
And a debate as to whether I should

It's a constant battle, me against them
I rock the wagon, the rut they're in
It's a deadlock contest, I never win

Should I just lay down and surrender?
Ha! No, it's a war worth being fought
But the world is my judge, whether I like it or not
