Boom

2/2/17 Stay tuned For the soon to be boom Between the sun and moon And any flowers that do or don't bloom During morning, night and afternoon Lifeforms becoming unglued Nobody is immune Never assume Acting like a buffoon And being rude or lewd Just because you think there may be doom And are full of rue So many different moods Including gloom Near and far from any lagoons As well as any sand dunes Leaves being pruned And work getting called off or resumed Among items old or new Mass amounts of food Being used and consumed Angles, straight and skewed While opportune chances loom Leading to a possible boon Or a crash that will or won't balloon Among glyphs and runes Before, during and after many monsoons And any typhoons Despite their being room Among materials considered pure or crude Beside folk and animals like baboons, caribou, kangaroo and racoons Or anything else that does or doesn't use a cocoon As time flies by and zooms For me and you Tombs and other areas becoming exhumed Among locations with traces of toxic fumes Which is just one example of why life is no cartoon Meanwhile questions remain and answers elude Across any longitude and latitude At different altitudes It's about time I turn it up to a higher notch of amplitude and magnitude By using aptitude As I continue to display gratitude With no attitude Towards changes that ensued Where souls had swam and canoed Below black skys and water light or dark blue I'll tell you something true At times I didn't know what exactly to do Until I focused and looked at it with a different view So that I could find the most efficient way through What I may get into While I continue In lieu Of not making moves During any issues I realize not everything has flesh and tissue Near and far from areas with igloos And buildings that teach martial arts such as judo and jujitsu The end of this was written at six oh two As the wind blew Above a field with some plants having mildew There was a film crew Making the occasional miscue During a scene involving the use of a didgeridoo Different species of birds flew As darkness grew Closer then eventually drew Many pursued But only the skilled few Were able to show and prove While in or out of their groove Before, during and after any rendevous By: Dalton Ogletree
