#12 ( " IMPERFECTIONS " )
Imperfections, have I any
To whom does it matter
little flaws I have many
opinions said I only chatter
Maybe I don't talk right
but my speech is not impaired
The accent I may have is slight
either way I never cared
You may argue at what I do or say
disagreements I might lose
It's how I do things my way
other people wouldn't choose
Imperfections, have I any
who's to say or to decide
little flaws I have many
ashamed I'm not nor will I hide
at times I'm not so strong
though weakness I show to nobody
It's hard admitting when I'm wrong
but isn't it hard for everybody
So maybe I'm not that very smart
or know all the things you know
What I learn I keep at heart
I take it easy not to slow
Imperfections, have I any
does it concern anyone that much
little flaws I have many
Care I don't for ignorance and such
Even though when I'm sitting
my posture isn't straight
and my lazy walk isn't fitting
my stride is always great
So what if my skin is brown
or my hair isn't quite right
I may get sad but never down
my appearance to you just
another sight

AUTHORYour very welcome I am happy to know you enjoyed it!
No one sin is greater than the other,how very true.I hate it when i see a big fat(obese) person put another down for smoking or drinking,I do neither,but i still see the hypocrisy.Thank you.

NO ONE OF THESE "SINS" OF THE FLESH IS GREATER THAN ANOTHER...
well thank you very much I'm glad you enjoyed it is Julia we must give thanks to she is a great writer.
Judgement will always be apart of the world, usually by fools who are so quick to open their mouths, act stupid, just to please a crowd, your options to ignore or get sucked in. Either way, can you win?
Thanks for posting this poem, it was a good read.
The insignifigance of others prejudice reflects assertion toward independance of ability!

thanks for your suggestion I did not write this poem imperfections and I love it just the way she wrote it. Julia has her own style when she reads her poems, it is what makes her a great writer.
i equals eye. give the I a name other than your own then your story telling. eye fought with the tendency to dump barrels of I 's into my stuff. just a suggestion.
