State It Straight

2/14/16 I'll state It straight On this very date For the sake Of all that is great I respect every race And appreciate the entire place What good is hate? And letting things go to waste? As Earth continues to rotate in space I see the leaves on trees shake Beside many seas and lakes Above tectonic plates Over time and use electronics break If you want to be a snake And to take what you didn't earn or make Then you better be ready to face The situation you happened to create Which may include paranoia, fear and feelings of being unsafe I have faith Regardless of if we can ever relate We all make mistakes Don't exaggerate Be thoughtful and considerate of all water sources, so that they may not ever evaporate By: Dalton Ogletree
