Academic Issues At the Holiday Table
One has a rallying spear
Other has a chomp to fear
But on the weekend to give gratitude
A Seminole and Gator won’t be showing any attitude
Cancelled is their rivalry match
Neither one will be the dinner catch
Gator meat
Sautéed and sweet
Will not be grilled by holiday heat
As for the Tribe
Known for the warrior horseback ride
Albert and Alberta will not have them in their clutches
Prescribing prosthetics and crutches
Due to a viral infection
Contagious and doesn’t hear the word rejection
Has ended this simple little thing
That is nothing more than a festive fling
After sailing down the Amazon department store river
Shopping with prime free delivery
Tight Izod shirts
Great gift for Seminole evenings filled with flirts
For the Gator’s heart
Nice handcrafted jewelry a nice giving season start
Maybe a medicine ball
Would be the stocking stuffer call
No game attending
School spirit must have some mending
Road trip to the fountain of youth
And seek some truth
Before the first semester grades hit the roof
It is the time when reality starts to show
Debating what the professor really does know
About the All American Academic Athletic show
Requested to be let go
Hopefully when final exam time arrives
This hash tag anti-social behavior drive
Will take a nose dive
Finding the answer
Just like they did for HIV positive and cancer
