Unearthly

1/4/21 Unearthly Remaining sturdy Holding on firmly Continuing the journey Pacing myself or in a hurry Subsiding any worries In a world full of controversy The waters have been getting murky And the lines are becoming blurry People are violent or begging for mercy Often being herky-jerky And far too thirsty Why do you always got to be dirty? (in the head) You're always late and never early (since way back when) Don't call another unworthy Have a little more courtesy Before being on the gurney I'll always remain friends with animals that are furry And all the little birdies As well as all the other lifeforms that scurry While I'm getting closer to the age of thirty Not a single thing I can't die without See for yourself, if you want to find out What life's about During any kind of drought Whenever you want, can't just call a time-out Because you did the wrong thing, for you it may be lights-out From poor decisions, you can often strikeout At the lower, middle or higher ground The body aging and winding down Any day now, I'll be dying now While I'm alive, enjoying it, with smiles and frowns
