I Got It

8/30/16 Plotted Lines connected no longer dotted I got it Took so much more than logic And being honest Hard work, pain, sweat, blood and tears is what it costed From here to beyond the tropics Near and far from ore deposits When things rotted A pungent odor usually wafted Only so much time we each are alloted Events intertwined and corresponded Some of which were ironic And others occasionally iconic This universe at no stoppage Burned so much chronic Many kinds that were exotic But not all were catatonic Drank too much and nodded Time and money is what it costed Animals that are exotic Plenty of which were spotted Gone but never forgotten New items each year trying to be ergonomic Meanwhile people continue to gossip Class 1 and 2 narcotics Among new and old electronics Twenty four seven three sixty five at a rate that is constant Comets Space shuttles with rockets And aircrafts moving at speeds that are super sonic Traveling in places considered cosmic Helping others gather data in astronomics Not all molecules bonded Is everything technically, gas, liquid, or solid? Churches built with designs that are gothic And occupations working with things that are atomic When relating to things economic Some just wanted Only the profit Even if at the end of the day they were tormented and haunted By: Dalton Ogletree
