School's started up. sigh
I moved up a notch, of course
but virtual school sucks.
We should be walking
- no, swaggering - ivied halls
with new dominance.
Seniors rule, true,
but with one foot out the door
- Juniors set the tone.
One more viral theft,
that renders long traditions
unapproachable.
This virus changes lives
- bodied within its limits
- what future will rise?
Unmotivated Able Bodied Men
By:Tom Wright

Many young men are poor because of poor choices,
They’re Government puppets with muffled voices.
Most lack motivation and therefore see little hope,
While grasping the knot tied at the end of their rope.
But people by nature are just drawn to free stuff,
Willing to go through life, having just enough.
Because no work effort was never displayed,
For anything to be free, someone else has paid.
Some like sleeping late taking things with ease,
Like mice constantly seeking a bite of my cheese.
They canvass my neighborhood with a lame excuse,
Hoping to find someone who’s a mental recluse.
They don’t seek full time work just another handout,
And ring my door bell seeking a weekly bailout.
For most seem allergic to working a five day week,
And appear almost weekly trying a new technique.
They always shake my hand before saying good-by,
And think there’s one day a week, if you sweat you’ll die.
So not knowing which day, why take that chance,
And all they got was to practice, a new song and dance.
a living self bodied laboratory
sensation causes in mind test tube
from in and out atmospheric attractions
distractions are felt from opposite reactions
Conscience the researcher experiments results
watches what is going on step by step
in their each and every composition
Able Bodied Man
I'll always remember the magical moments
As we walked whimsically under the moonlight,
There were many memories of tender sweet
Soft sands that kissed the bottom of our feet,
Such an able bodied man with treasured presence
I'll always think of some kind of reason,
For we'll be intoxicated with just holding hands
In this time as if every magical feeling has its own season,
As an able bodied man and woman walk hand in hand
Upon these treasured soft kissed sands pertaining
To the many magical moments under the moonlight.

Chosen a burden of childhood
out goings meant not a reflection
of the “happenings” .
The severe bruise devoted to the meat
and about yellers might not a such heat
yet , the world of other tops
did not mean a much deed .
Separated a soul from a bodied born ,
as the spirit versus itself and torn .
The grave diggers avenges and if so ,
die my the whatsoever people ,
but not blue the blown .
Some dark , done a gorgeous giant ,
What part , none was a delicious night .
Sleep damned things never be waken up ,
an instinct flow , up to the paradise ,
will , though , be a brilliant flight .
