Amanda's Poem

2nd April 2008 (Wed)

"If
being ourselves is wrong
then
where does that leave us?

And
what right do people have to judge
when they don't even know
what it's like
to be in these shoes?"

(Amanda Chan 2008)

The second stanza depicts my thought so well... But then again, humans tend to judge...and more often than not, judgments are made within 10-15 seconds.

Isn't it a bit too soon, people?

Have you ever thought about how harmful negative thoughts can be? They're like badly-mixed water colour which covers the original layer of drawing underneath. Yes, the drawing itself might be bad.. so..bad drawing + badly-mixed water colour = good match... But what if the drawing is not that bad, what has water colour done to the art piece as a whole? If the ugly painting's too thick, viewers might not be able to even see the drawing...
