Maybe So

4/16/16 Nah I'm not interested in watching the Brady show Or listening to the radio Focus and work on daily growth In and out of every state and coast As well as anywhere else from here beyond outerspace folks All over the place I roam So many different ways we go Across a sunny and shady globe As well as atop the clay and stones Maybe so As of now only do the faintest traces show Relics and ancient tomes Buried underground in caves below And above the vicinity of several vacant homes Or at isolated coves Inside and outside of areas labeled as safety zones There was nearby and faraway crops not always being safely grown An increased chance of danger the higher many flames had flown Play with fire and you may get burned, which is something you may have known Everslowly did certain blades corrode Meanwhile others mainly broke Temples, and arts made of stone By those that usually obeyed the throne Any weather not just the rain and snow I was amazed, feeling strange although I had changed and grown She wanted to say hello Every single day by phone While I was among several glades and groves It was vastly overgrown, so on my own I had to create a road I then found pieces of jade as more and more waves approached In the distance was several navy boats Alert while staying at post Far too many betrayed and put another into the grave for dough While then decayed the bones Many times the case was closed Out and about I can smell the sage and cloves In terrain filled with snakes and crows By: Dalton Ogletree

You sound like a Druid Shaman to me! Absolutely loved it, Dalton. Especially the last line on what these animals represent.
