Poisonous Apple

9/1/21 You need to know To each their own Fast to treat you like cattle Tempt you with a poisonous caramel dipped apple Quick to pick a battle Thinking I've been fragile On me they would tattle Because they think it'll rattle And cause me to unravel But that will Just push me further on in my travels I'm not surprised, it never baffled Or left me bedazzled Since you caused such a hassle Choke you out with your own tassels Or just make you eat my dust and gravel They love to cackle And prattle Funny because they're nothing special, like a king or queen in a castle The way in which it was done was sloppy or surgical As I move around horizontal and vertical They always try to make it personal This world can be unmerciful There's more to it than you and your convertible Wow In each and every town Is snakes and clowns So quick to put others down And to turn the whole conversation around I'm going to hold my ground Your B.S. and ignorance will not be allowed
