What Goes Around

10/6/22 More rain we need Storming or the faintest breeze Across the tainted seas It's all been very far from make-believe No matter if they hated me Still I'm sustaining speed Every day and week I over indulge in what provides me pain relief Often I'd lay beneath The shade of trees In sad ways people take their leave With smoke stained teeth Yet again a strain to sleep Nearby a field of tame sheep It's been over eight weeks Watching honest folks with scraped knees Waiting for orders to lay siege Because we are not on the same teams I drove around in a Mercedes Stopped to pick some daisies While the temperature was in the eighties Had a bite of some aged cheese While looking out at the Euphrates Spotted from afar another snake I see Continually these ladies Think I'm Hades Meanwhile I continue to vaccinate animals for Rabies Over time layers peeled off For good or bad reason areas sealed off With much more than a steel lock As of now something feels off So the deals off Wow, this is a real shock How much some of these meals cost Watch how fast she'll talk The same can be said for how quick he'll squawk As of now always need to carry a concealed Glock Wow you got caught trying to steal socks Always acting like your life is real posh Bound to happen eventually the wheels pop Can't be just a joke or clown Got to make the best before I'm below the ground I know it now About what goes around
