Best Get To The Bottom Of Poems


Cake and Eat It
cake & eat it

bored with the 
relationship s/he’s in
but not wanting to leave
the positive aspects,
thinking s/he’s too old to
start again &
been there before anyway---
with a pattern s/he knows 
all too well
looming just over the horizon,
s/he takes the plunge,
not looking before s/he leaps &
not wanting to...

She tries to raise her right, hoping to win the good fight
Praying that her daughter is safe and trying to feel right
Never seems considered with the unimportance of everything
If love were items, get a bigger table for what she brings
Her heart and mind are full...

Composed: by Tom Wright
7/12/2018

The man who coined the aphorism “Seize the Day”
Didn’t always mean “The Ends Justify the Means” but may.
Many have said “Rules Were Made To Be Broken”
Not only written rules but some which...

Find Your Destiny Dream
See your dream
Yet know what you’re dreaming for
Achieving takes movement 
Courage takes assurance
Encouragement is a fuel for influence
Take action for what you want to strive for
Get to the bottom of it being the core
However be confident for sure
It’s you the individual to explore
Nothing more than...

Regret of a Chef
Advice to the new hire ...


I heard tell, it's been said
that to make an omelet,
you have to break a few eggs

I regret I had to break a few,
I regret I'm gonna break a few more too

I'm a spiritual chef,
I serve food for the soul
I keep...

M-Theory Musings
What theory unifies forces, weak, strong,
With gravity— also, to which belong
All the string theories of why and because?
To answer these queries, M-theory does.

Proponents aver it offers clarity
As to the issue of singularity.—
Where there’s a will there’s a way,
So they say…

In the beginning our universe sprang
From...

Said and Done
Lonely & hurt 
Broken I remain
Can't shake the guilt
Living in shame
Put on fake smile
I slowly fade away
The nightmare of your death 
We live with every day
The meaning of it all this
to which my mind attends
Has not one answer
that I can fully comprehend
WHY why did this...

“Are you ready, DynDoeth,” the half elf asked?

2st
Time warp
1979 2ST started to broad cast
In the Southern Highlands as AM radio
1999 2ST started to transmit in FM
Although these are land marks
The biggest gamble is yet to come
In 1982 2ST hired Graeme Day

Present day
Or is it Graeme Day
If you are a local you know

My LeftBrain is busy reading a book
on what Systems Theory
and thinking
and experience find encouraging
for WinWin social change,
where no losers are allowed to fail
at thriving away from WinLose capital stuckness
in everyday mundane egocentrism,

But,
at the same time
my RightBrain is trying to imagine how to share

Reflection of the Blade
I just don't understand why I am here at the police station
They tell me they brought me in to question me on what I might know about a murder spree
Why are they questioning me? I know nothing about murder, I know nothing under the sun

I Owe My Doctor Big Time
Given he choice between winning the lottery,
And changing my Doctor,
I'd stick with the Doctor I have.

There is only one other I have more faith in than my Doctor,
To get to the bottom of any health issues I may have.
He always orders the right tests,
And goes...
