Over-Critical
Collectively...
They believe themselves immuned,
From any sign of of expressing accountability.
Although they can be,
Humanitarians easily.
Individually...
They are prone to be lazy and self centered.
And yet,
First to show empathy, a good nature.
Plus extremely giving.
Mentally...
We all carry the same trait.
Personalities that confuse one another.
With an ability to be over-critical of ourselves.
But hate to receive it from anyone else.
Together...
We stand to defend our way of life,
With beliefs...
Others are envious of our hypocritical ways,
We can not seem to self examine to correct.
And We are the THEY...
We often find time to critique.
But somehow can not see ourselves,
Reflected in the doing of it!
