Ravaged
12/5/20
Crafted
Then packaged
Implanted
Continually chanted
Across lands that are ravaged
Now it is acrid
Stuck together or disbanded
Across flat earth, or terrain that was slanted
Groomed and managed
Or unkempt and matted
A weakling or a savage
Very poor or living lavish
Was always welcomed, or got banished
Bore the mark, or was brandished
And branded
After being reprimanded
Stuck the landing or crash landed
Was a lone wolf, or a helping hand was handed
A chain reaction
The outcome counteracted
Nobody knew what to do, when it happened
Does no good being unchallenged
And always having an advantage
Across the planet
In life as far as I understand it
Don't panic, do your best to manage
After suffering damage
Get back up, and put on a bandage
