TEAM HUNGRY MY TUMMY

COVID-19
“One Art,” by Elizabeth Bishop
The art of losing isn’t hard to master;
so many things seem filled with the intent
to be lost that their loss is no disaster
.
Lose something every day. Accept the fluster
of lost door keys, the hour badly spent.
The art of losing isn’t hard to master.

Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture

I love) I shan’t have lied. It’s evident
the art of losing’s not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster

TYPHOON

Everything you are affects my weather

Kevin Clark
The clouds fill up with all your fears
Then when it rains it pours tears
Your screams cause the North wind to blow
Your sadness brings a tornado

Now is the compass you can change forever

Everything you are affects my weather
Laughter keeps the frost back
Anger forces a lighting crack

Your pain starts a typhoon to grow

Your joy is an everlasting rainbow
Now is the compass you can change forever
Everything you are affects my weather

CYBERBULLYING

TROLL
Simon Mack

A breath of fresh Spring air on wispy warm

skies
I sit and contemplate on Cyber’s disguise
Where those behind touch screen are brave
and so loud
And shout with a fork tongue nothing to be
proud.

Brutality’s intent in words spat with malice

Does the person they attack deserve evil’s
chalice?
Would remarks be so forthright whilst met face to face
With those who’s sound honor they online disgrace.

Rise above their deeds do not take a bite

For attention and backlash is what they’ve in sight
Report their cruel actions and move onto others
With more positive notions leave trolls to the gutter.
 I Shall Not Pass This Way Again
(Anonymous)

Through this toilsome world, alas!

Once and only once I pass,
If a kindness I may show,
If a good deed I may do
To a suffering fellow man,
Let me do it while I can.
No delay, for it is plain I shall not pass this way again.
