Conch

4/21/17 Near and far from any kind of conch Animals and humans with a paunch While others are gaunt Some just want To flaunt What they got Like it or not A stance considered staunch To get business done and the point across Bad experiences for many that daunt And continue to haunt Items bought With little to any thought Never used and forgot Left in a box Beers brewed with little or extra hops Ranging in various costs And available in similar or different shops People obsessed with slots And winning the jackpots You talk alot Of hog wash Non-stop Nothing of substance or quality, far from top notch Some did or didn't get caught Later on or at the very spot Getting shot or locked Away, and paying the cost By: Dalton Ogletree
