Eighth Time

11/8/16 Many days I Was way high Still the same guy During the daytime It was officially gametime At the same time As the show "Dateline" Time to educate minds Before, during and after all of this "debate time" Worldwide not just statewide Now tell me what good is something that continually claims lives? They say something worthwhile just may take time Therefore, if you really want it, don't waste time People and animals going through difficult and strange times Experienced it first hand, and heard it through the grapevine Some just wanted to skate by Never once have I done a facetime Life has never just been about "play time" And always having to have a great time Movements sporadic, rather erratic or systematic And in a straight line If it didn't work like that, why would it the eighth time? Nah it ain't fine Not going to let you take mine I'll just show and prove before I gotta say why Beings with canines and without, doesn't matter in the end because eventually they die That goes for all, regardless of if the suns ray's shine All along the lake side Sad to say some many bodies of water became dry Still the rage climbs Out of a scale of one to ten, I'd rate it a five By: Dalton Ogletree
