Analysis of Keep It Good

Keep it good!

'Keep WHAT good?'

What you put under your hood.

People can not miss to wish back,
An opportunity almost to have.
But never had.
Although...
Made to believe,
As many are led astray...
To assume that which is wanted,
Satisfies a need to create...
A festival of gluttonous greed.
Feeding a lust of wasteful activities!

'And this you say,
Is good?
Or not good for my hood?'

Not if loyalty matters.
What happens when your engine stalls?
Some will call a mechanic.
Others?
Believing they will save a few dollars,
Will continue pumping garbage...
Into a tank overdue for a cleansing.
Then to hope...
Compliments continue to be given,
For an outside appearance.

However...
It's under the hood,
Many never understand but should...
Keep understood.
No matter if it gleams to sparkle,
And shine to blind...
From a recent wax job.
If it is not right under the hood?
What might look good on the outside...
That ride anticipated,
May be delayed with aches and pains.

'Oh...
At first I thought you were talking about,
What I should do...
To keep my mind and body,
Running in better condition.
You know?
By checking out what I eat.
With an exercising more.
And now I realize,
You were talking about folks...
Living in the 'hood'.
Doing things undercover.
And try to fake what they do.
Only to be riding around with others,
Causing them their aches and pains.
While charading around the neighborhood.
In a car just washed and waxed.
Out of the car wash!'

Yeah.
If it's good?
Why not?!
As long as people,
Are kept aware of what they pay for!
Why and for what reason.

'If anyone feeds on anything cheap?
And they know about it?
What do they expect?
Gold nuggets to eliminate?'

You're taking this somewhere,
I had not intended.

'Well...
Before opening the door,
I always ask if it's okay to enter.
Some people will just barge right on in.
Then act as if they are so surprised,
By what goes on to keep disbelieved...
What has been taken,
To go somewhere else.
They began with it to start,
In the first place.
