Fringe

4/27/16 Beyond the fringe So long as I live My all I give Don't care if you call it a sin Or if it burns a bridge I work above and below the ridge And I can't always win While the planets continue to spin You have no idea what I did And have never been in my shoes or skin I'm positive You're story was not always corroborative Don't you fib Or mess with me or my kin The weather at times muggy The same could be said for events turning bloody Rather abruptly Daily or monthly Sad to see anything happen unjustly Near and far from where the terrain was muddy To put it bluntly No longer is it all very funny I've got to get that money From the city to the country Any day and night, regardless of it's sunny Still this life is lovely And I feel lucky To have people that love me All these dreams I don't always understand what it means Even when twenty thousand leagues under the seas Between you and me It is not always what it seems By: Dalton Ogletree
