Tilting

7/4/16 Ever since the beginning blood has always been spilling And when it came to money some made a killing The system many are milking Therefore the balance has been tilting Nearby and far away from flowers wilting Where the temperatures are bone-chilling Artist gilding And others quilting Meanwhile the media continues filming And oil companies remain drilling As farmers keep on tilling Machines are used for milling Life is thrilling How can you get what you want, if you stay unwilling To making progress towards fulfilling Inside of certain buildings Is an ongoing process of distilling By: Dalton Ogletree
