Because someone is doing
Their occupation
They are the occupant
When they talk about occupancy...

Tis' world's 
Occupation
With regards 
To annihilation 
Earth's collapsing 
Disintegration
Strolling, generation
To generation
Pray thou 
To chaste shalt return...

Why am I so poor
Oh, you aren't
You have 
A family
A house
A car
An occupation
Feelings and love 
And there are so many
Poorer 
And poorest 
You haven't encountered...

Sacrifices fundamental activities for education.
Clouds enclosed in mentality.
Home of the learned.
Occupation of those who can't do.
Opposition of modern history.
Life of the ludicrous....

Begging on the street is an occupation
Need food to increase one's blood circulation
Otherwise, we stumble
Fidget and fumble
Eating isn't only pleasurable but a strict obligation...

lies
and excuses
await:
narcissism
         sees itself...
no one else
exists:
ego
emits
pre-occupation-
admits
nothing
up close
myopia
        passes by
without seeing
the obvious......

Shadow shakes the world
Half globe reflects the word
A human being becomes tired
Down of his kneels lives the motion
Officiating by his related soul of his occasion
Well living without occupation....

ANNIE ELISE REST IN PEACE DIED BY FISH GREASE

Rest in peace
Buried in this plot, Anna Elise
Occupation was fry cook
Died: burnt by hot-boil fish grease

Just met a friendly supermarket cashier
Thanked him for the joyful presence he volunteered
A mundane occupation
Doesn't stimulate the imagination
Guess it's way better than a street bum career...

Being a wildlife doc must be a rewarding occupation
Saving helpless wee critters in life threatening situations
Takes a special heart
True kindness they impart
Sleeping at night, they must have no reservations...

Well hallelujah!!! I've finally reached my objective
Under two hundred pounds, have a whole new perspective
Good for lots more years
Gushing happiness tears
Maybe start a new occupation on as a cop show detective...

How did this happen?
Only a year ago...
Laughing, loving, living.  Sudden
Occupation by men with evil intent.
Cast into boxcars like animals. 
Assaulted and beaten by soldiers.
Unable to stand, to move, to  think.
Selection.
Time ends....

Meghan Markle's 
  lost her sparkle
While Prince Harry
  seems more wary

Old Prince Charles'
  star has faded
And Princess Anne
  looks quite jaded

The Royal Family
  no more a fascination
Corona virus ~
  our new pre-occupation...

Masonry is a good occupation. 
Stone makes for a solid foundation. 
It's a hard job with great demands. 
Thank God for a strong pair of hands. 
A good job is not always done fast. 
However, stone is strong and built to last

Inspired by another member's poem....
