Limerick Friday #478: Virtual School Is Back With A Vengeance -- Day 173


There were a few tears
And technology fears
To school's new normal we adjust
In adaptability we trust
Aided by patience and beers

Chris Combs repped the Pack
And he was loved back
His ALS battle was long
Raised money and stayed strong
Bravery he didn't lack

We're all feeling beat
Weighed down by oppressive heat
And headlines from dystopia
Describing fascist xenophobia
Can America be saved from defeat?

The dominant pitcher of his day
Threw up K after K
Even when the Mets traded him (whoa)
Fans wouldn't let go
RIP Tom Terrific, the Scion of Shea

Escape plans aplenty
There's no way to put this gently
Go-bags are needed
Worst scenarios heeded
America in 2020
