Grandpa slid down the chimney X-mas night
When he dusted himself off
His bottom was black ...
But the chimney was white

Life’s about distance
and lack of control
A search for redemption
someone to console
Closer than farther
then farther again
A distant horizon
new history to fend
Excuses are many
the reasons but few
Voices heard calling
though old were once new
A spirit still willing
a body that’s weak
My pathway desponding
—once more do I seek
(The New Room: September, 2023)

X Mas Is For Love
little Robin perched on snow covered fence,
out in open without any defence,
Kestrel saw an easy meal,
considered moral appeal,
In Xmas show love- no room for offence!

X-Mas Season
Some special seasons seem sad
oh-so solemn
Others -- sallow, slow, even silly
But X-mas season 'tis to savor
soothing, silky, serene
sending us soaring skyward
with its satiny, snowy scenes

Awaiting X-Mas
the joys of sleet turning into snow,
are of X-mas to be ushered soon,
brings cheer to hearts as X-mas lights glow!
the joys of sleet turning into snow,
family bonds with winter wind grow,
log fire, wine and dine, with full moon!
the joys of sleet turning into snow,
are of X-mas to be ushered soon!

Pandemic Mas Fina
What is a virus,
But a mutation of cells?
Yes, it's true, some are shiny,
Some have bells.
Whistles too,
Like me and you,
Doing, consistently, the opposite
Of what we should do.
Blowing the horn,
Banging the gong,
One we should have, could have,
Sounded for so long and,
Though, now, it just seems wrong.
Are we strong or, at least, stronger
When our words instill fear?
A thirst

X-Mas
Coughing and sputtering...
The cold night air hurts my lungs...
I inhale my cigarette and Google the freezing point of peroxide...
My days have turned to mundane madness...
My nights blurr past like a speeding train...
I dream of breakfast even though it's 9 at night and I'm awake...
I count my nickels and dimes in hope of a biscuit

No Mas, No Mas
No Mas, No Mas
Written: by Tom Wright
February 2015
Soon after rising my thought process,
Becomes consumed by negativity;
Not what I desire, but what life has bequeathed me,
Perhaps that is all the respect I’ve earned.
Most days, I sit, feeling like a broken man,
Life has knocked me down, but never out,
I have fought a good fight and the final

Vale Mas
La sonrisa de Arcelia
vale más que
todos los billetes de un dólar
en el mundo.
La risa de Arcelia
vale más que
todos los billetes de mil dólares
en la Vía Láctea.
Y un beso de Arcelia
vale más que
todos los billetes de un millón de dólares
en el universo.

A Mas a La Gente Equivocada
she told me
there's something you
need to know
there's something I have to say
we been together now
for more moments than
than I could say
bet you didn't know this
but I don't think
this is the best time to say
but I never loved you
I just let you have your way
what good is a broken heart
if there's no one who care's
