Change In Temperature

11/11/15


Birds of the same feather
Eat and stay together

You yourself can possibly make it better
But not if you take forever

 Such strange weather
And in the water a change in temperature


The mouth of an animal with rabies begins frothing
While the degrees continue dropping

The windows start fogging
As many things struggle to survive the cold, beginning of mold or rotting

A process showing little to none signs of stopping
Which to many is shocking


Using your brain's smart
Got to stay sharp
Even after a late start
In an area that always remained harsh


Know what
In a given lifetime can only do so much
Including consuming donuts
In a given day before you throw up
From overdoing it, and not listening to your own gut
Even after ample knowledge was given and you were shown stuff


Hesitation
Towards any destination
Doesn't help one get there, and neither will giving into temptation
Overconsumption or overmedication

Over the years in certain areas there was a rise and fall in elevation
Above and below spots held for celebrations
