Man wrestles
Leaving scars on his own flesh
Tackling the other on his path
Left to only caress him when he’s all that’s left

He will poke the committee’s eyes
Wrestling for his own Nobel Prize
He feels he’s a god

Truffles

It really was quite a kerfuffle
And a series of violent scuffles 
I kept wrestling a pig
But he grew much too big
So instead we went searching for truffles

Race Beginning Than Winning

Always knee from very beginning,       
Each race run I would be winning;
Grades be better;
Wear letter sweater;
Wrestling, my opponent pinning.

Wasteful Wind

Whistling wind
wrestling with withered leaves
on the cocoa farm
Lifting debris does not pay
I plead thee

blow down their stony ramparts

Seeing Double

The other night at the county fair
I got drunk and tried wrestling a bear,
he twisted me in a knot
I heard loud snapping a lot...
now my glasses are used as footwear!

Winning the lottery,
Wishing for a good place,
Wrestling for a trophy,
Walking the marathon,
Working for a sad man,
Watching our enemies.
Were all of these worth it?

A Struggle To Behave

I'm just not an athletic go-getter.
Won't catch me in a teams scarf or sweater.
But what I watch on TV, 
That always does it for me,
Wrestling- and the dirtier the better!!!

sumo wrestling
corpulent men wearing diapers
what kind of people watch this?
I stare as one gets flopped with his enormous legs in the air
Showing more than I ever wanted to see

Wasting Time With Temptation

A power struggle with my flesh
fighting with my impatience
playing tug a war with my addictions
arm wrestling with my anger
shadow boxing with my fears
temptation is such a waste of time

NEVER WRESTLE WITH A PIG 
                           YOU BOTH GET DIRTY
