Different Colors
10/28/16
No time for any sucker
Since I'm not getting any younger
Got to stay up, before getting permanently put under
I don't need no maid or butler
The same can be said for any cookie cutter
Anyday, as I do and don't discover
Among things intact and punctured
Straight up gutter
Near and far away from any buzzards
Onto something rougher and tougher
Year round, fall, winter, spring and summer
A world full of so much different colors
As well as things labeled and numbered
Either disorganized or well structured
Mass quantities of items have been plundered
Much of which became asunder
Nobodies perfect we all make blunders
Respect and love your sisters, brothers and mother
Similar yet different from one another
Near and far from lumber
During sunshine, rain, snow and thunder
I can't help but wonder
Due to my own curiosity and hunger
