In their mind they dissected me:
Eye-analysis on overdrive.
You could hear the cogs whirring
(If they judge me, they'll survive.)
A wonderful philosophical write, Daniel. You can feel the judgement of others, almost read their thoughts. I imagine you have meditated for a while. It does tend to make the thoughts and motivations of others somewhat more transparent. But then you also learn, judgement is very human and hard to evade. Well worth evading though ... the state of non-judgment is the state of peace:)
