Bad Egg

by Sean Dohr   Apr 11, 2006


A bad egg, is an egg, that's made a wrong turn.
Leaving its family and friends quite concerned.
A bad egg is a person down the wrong path,
but they can be saved, if you do something fast.

People make decisions, that are not always right,
they'll drink or do drugs, and sometimes they'll fight.
People do deeds that I can't comprehend,
I wonder, what they think of the message they send.

The message they put out to the people they love.
They curse at the sky, as if it's something above.
They take no advise or responsibility,
for the actions they take, that seem so wrong to me.

But, people can always turn life around.
Making people surprised, is a feeling profound.
Getting back on track, can cost you an arm and a leg,
but in the end, there's no such thing as rotten eggs.

    I liked the rhyme scheme and the meaning. Its so true what it said. A bad egg is a person that has made some bad choices in their life but we shouldn't give up on them but keep trying to help them. 5/5
