Daylight and Overnight

1/30/17 Shrike, planes, kites and satellites In flight Above pike, mice, parasites And all other types of life Atop the highest heights Down in the deepest depths out of sight Thinking twice Just might Suffice For doing it right During a life Rife With strife Rituals and rites Some of which include a sacrifice I don't care about the hype Or what trends and is liked People going on strike Unable to unite Despite the slight Differences and similarites Explosives like dynamite And materials such as dolomite Quite the plight Despite the slight Differences in how we all get a bite And slice Everyone has their own version of paradise A spike in the price During the daylight And overnight Fruit becoming rotten and moldy after being ripe And plants struck with blight Got to wipe off the ice So that there is a line of sight Some tykes start with a trike Then ride a bike To be precise I'm being polite And nice While I roll the dice By: Dalton Ogletree
