Faint of Heart

6/19/22 This is not for the faint of heart Another brain fart While working by a hay cart Near waters full of grey sharks At night it all turned way dark In order to get it done, had to take part Occasionally began the great march Many may bark Often regretting what they start Trying to interpret cave art Intent is like that of Braveheart Always got to keep my blade sharp Close and far from any state park As well as K-Mart Confucius said It's nothing new friend Many do offend Always those who pretend As well as somebody out to do you in I can't afford to lose again I need to shoot ahead To the end Until I'm truly dead No need for a Sudafed Far too often it's lies not the truth spread Not the same As moth to flame Too many caught in chains Surviving off rotten grains Suffering with no way to stop the pain Tormented through a lot of games Benefiting others by ill-gotten gains Taking advantage of those with common aims
