berate

others i oft forgive
where myself i will berate
i assume their innocence
ascribe their intentions
as the best
while blame myself
for ignorance, inconstancy, idiocy
and the rest
knowing the wrong i do think
though upon which would never act
convince myself
that thoughts are as deeds
though i know this is not how, in fact,
the world is or works or sees me so
my harshest critic, i am, i know
but i know best - or worst
and worst am last - or first
