Perception
5/24/15
Have a sense of direction
And sharp perception
But don't rely on a constant connection
And always having cell reception
Why sit back and wait
Realize how far you will get at this rate
If on your own you fail to navigate
Don't give up and keep trying before it all evaporates
Since most things gravitate
Towards what begins to fascinate
While many continue to exaggerate
I'm continuing to kill pests
And will bet
That far underneath the ground it's still wet
Trust me it's wise to have a skill set
For whatever you'd like to fulfill next
Most only cared to dominate
And self nominate
While barely ever trying to compensate
As they displayed a whole lot of hate
When they could not concentrate
Being able to live long is great
And made me contemplate
Why it caused such a strong debate
Far beyond the gates
Near several ponds and lakes
