Love is divine
Love is giving
Seek no swap
Enhance your mental range
Love not for exchange.

Is just one too many for me
So please swap your cur
For something sans fur
To avoid a catastrophe!...

That our President wants to swap
Because he's too scared
To lead unprepared
The Coronavirus Block Flop...

Slowly becoming an adult... please make it stop
Who knows what lies ahead beyond the next hilltop
Could bring fame
Could bring shame
With the path I've chosen, I wouldn't swap...

Greedy media give us sensation:
the four horsemen who bring devastation.
But if they were to stop,
do a bad-good news swap,
we’d bemoan Armageddon’s cessation....

Stop at your morning Coughing Shop
To spread some flu bugs, germs we could swap
It's only right to share
Spread germs through the air
It's a hang out for the flu transmittal nonstop...

Sometimes wishing, you are in my position
Let's change it a little bit.
I take your place; I give you my place
New life, new art.
 
Start a new life,
Even if you don't like it, said very, very well....

Well I thought I saw a puddy tat 
How did I ever imagine that?        
    Just look at our faces. 
    It seems we swapped places. 
He is where he belongs that bad cat.

As this poem was being written,
A small boy appeared to be smitten.
He loved his baby brother,
But then he asked his mother,
‘Please can we swap him for a kitten?’

Frustration has bubbled right over the top
Can't count on services today, okay I'll stop
Just the mood I'm in
Promises are thin
Mean nothing anymore, for the old days I'd swap

Winter has arrived with a freaking cold blast
Could have been warned it's sure a jolt to our ass
Wearing shorts and a tank top
Woolies and tuques we now swap 
The top models for style and eloquence I surpass...

Arise and shine, mother of light,
For doom now lurks behind the night
And darkness hovers around your vine
Mother of light, arise and shine!

I'd swap time again and again
                                  just to break your fall
                                  and keep you from shatters

        if only it means cradling your breath again and again
        If Only....

Canton Here I Come
Written: by Tom Wright
2004 
I once traveled to a big time swap meet,
Thinking there, I’d find a deal so sweet.
I swapped my hard cash,
For another man’s stash,
But it was torturous on knees and feet.

Listen to poem:

I had a face transplant
'cos I was off my face, as was.
I trolled the book of faces
till I found one I liked.
We did a face swap, swabbed - 
me and my friend that was.
Now I am her, she is me,
selfies facing up.
We kept our friends and likes....

Snapping those green beans, hear them pop
Hear my whimpering flop.
Multiplying

In the bucket,maybe could swap
Beans for good coffee stop
I am absconding

In secret I'll go to Whistle Stop
Hidden all from view shop
Green beans done now slurping...

Becoming you,
I perceive your face-
   in body swap.

        *

   The stakes were 
high, when I missed the moon,
   in the desert chase.

         *

   The soul
was trapped in an earthen pot,
    while catching the shadows.

(Limerick) 


There was a man called Dorian Gray
Who tried hard not to get old and gray 
So a swap he just did
Portrait wrinkles did rid 
Till his rotten flesh ate it away.

They trade you one for two,
Within the same price range,
Their formula won’t change,
And later when you’re through
You’ll swap them for some new.

But when my life is done,
Will books I’ve written be
Recycled, mindlessly,
Will there be even one
Collectors hunt, for fun?...
