Winners
1st Place: Choice by @breezin wins 200Humanity coins,75 Deranged Coins,125 DC Music and 50 Scribble Coins
Humanity looks ignorantly on, as it toils in self destruction
kindness remains an infant void of nurturing caress
While society is latched onto the breast of corruption
But ours, ours is the door left open for either to ingress
Foolish hands make nimble work as they trade their time for wealth
and earnest hearts yields fervent poise to elusive fields of grace.
blinded are the ones whose actions and intent portrayed in stealth
can not see that hand and heart, heart and hand, as one, remains encased.
Choice of deed trumps choice of will in lifes' orchestral progression
while the tick tick tock, of times ever ticking clock allows the sure succession.
Only by escaping from the prisons of our body and minds dreary nights
will we become instruments of change, and bask in tranquil delights
2nd Place: Taj, O Taj by @botefarm wins 150 Humanity coins,50 Deranged Coins, 100 DC Music and 30 Scribble Coins

Judge
A contest like this would require a poet to judge. It would be a disaster if I sat to judge all the poems.
That's why we have the ever so talented @kimi to save my ass.
Do consider following her guys.
I feel her poems are really undervalued.
