I wish I had a telescope

I wish I had a telescope that I could turn about

to view the faults of others as a microbe, not a shout.

The weaknesses and failings of my friends and fam'ly then

would appear much smaller than a humming bird or wren.

I would not be offended by their tiny little specks,

and cease to let such trifles so worry me and vex. 

Then perhaps my own faults I could view from the perspective

of  proper condemnation and apply a swift corrective.
