Judgment and cruelty live just beneath the surface of people or society. They are animalistic, destructive, and always waiting for an excuse to be unleashed.
Only restraint keeps them from causing harm.
It’s a warning poem:
About mob mentality.
Moral superiority.
How easily judgment turns into violence.
It reflects exhaustion with human cruelty.
A sense of foreboding.
An awareness that civilization is fragile.
The poem warns that judgmental instincts are savage forces lying in wait beneath consciousness, and if unleashed, they will act brutally and without mercy.
It portrays judgmental thoughts, impulses, or entities as dangerous, restrained forces lurking beneath the surface—in a “Lower Dimension.”
They may not be active yet, but they are waiting, tense and eager to break free.
The poem suggests that judgment itself is a primal, animal instinct that must be consciously restrained.
Title.
The Judgmental.
(A weary voice whispers)
In the Lower Dimension, they wait. Beasts, waiting like chained-up wild boars to be let loose.
