A molasses summer
You Follow me home because I’m scared of strangers I know what’s looming behind me I know you carry a knife in your pocket But it’s ok only mysteries scare me You Drown me in a bath Than lay me out in the sun to dry In the drip dried summer that sank Like a glass ball in a jar of molasses You Swim...

The jar tips over, black syrup spilling across the floor, slow as grief. I try to mop it up, but it clings to everything— the tiles, my hands, the soles of my feet. By the time the floor is clean, the room smells like a funeral— but I have it on good authority that the animals were saved. Whew. ...

Premium Member Bostons Deadly Molasses Flood of 1919
Boston’s deadly awful Molasses Flood happened in 1919. It caught people unaware, they were floating in a stream. Houses were crashing down, it was a horrible terrible scene. Hundreds lost their lives, so could no longer live their dream....

make Pancakes with molasses Horn Haiku
after taking classes to make pancakes with molasses we must move our asses (while making advances) (we were all aghast) (were burned to ashes) (against head bashes) (have been on branches) (cooked in clay by Cassius) (we made mad dashes) (elegant and enhances) (eaten by Erasmus) (received from a Fascist) (found by Pope Francis) (get to see the gashes) (stuck with long lances) (on them all passes) (head against smashes) (seen flying through...

Burnt Offering
Lame lyrics of lost love penned by sweatered sirens deep as divots, shallow as puddles Doesn’t teenage angst get old by the time you’re thirty? I’d think so, yet the lackeys lap it up like maple syrup I derive my dirges from a deeper well dredging the depths the abyss of my essence bringing it to the surface in buckets thick...

Premium Member Molasses In January
She’s a tedious lecture after a heavy meal, A glacier inching coolly toward the sea. She’s sluggish and poky, a dawdling bore, A long drawn-out adagio, a passive devotee. She’s tardy in attendance, and belated, as a rule. Her lethargic applications lack dispatch. Her dilatory effort winds the thread around the spool. Her needlepoint is anything but rash. Her slothful intervention into indolent...

Black Molasses
"Black Molasses" Black Molasses holds to ransom footprints sucked into Tropic of Capricorn mud as bushfires bleed sugar from cane like molten glucose shot into the veins of Mother Earth gone all libertine sour like Lemon Grass crushed and burnt acrid smoke inhaled through the flaring nostrils of brumbies running wild coats the colour of bitter sweet toffee now drenched in ash like dusty grey...

Molasses
My lips drip molasses as thick as the blood that flows through me. I am seasoned to perfection delighting in my appetite. Bittersweet sonnets play in the backroom as I revel delicacies. The night shows suspense as i lay on my bed,curtains swaying with the wind. My mind is at rest and my dreams are...

Molasses
When all the bells And all the whistles Are packed away And put back in their wrappers Where is my wandering attention bound to go Faced with the prospect of entering another cold winter season With no sun to heal these festering lesions And I am not saying life is all bad Rather it is a hard time of year Where dreams turn into...
