Molly Poems

Mine fervent aspiring political activism...

Gunning gusto, (while rosy axles grind)
for Bernie Sanders dagnabbit
nipped in figurative bud triggered zilch
prospects to germinate, 

cultivate, and amalgamate
late blooming spore port as 
schlocky, reedy, quirky, political neophyte,
whose aura, charisma, dogma
enigma, persona... absent gregarious masculinity.

Scant hours...Read More

It pains me to know that my baby is shy
Afraid to speak up, she lets her tears dry
I’ve been that little girl, mild and meek
Offended, abused, but dare not speak

I grew up ashamed, to be anything less
Or anything more than...Read More

The next life will see me as a skyscraper
Thirty seven stories tall
With shiny clean windows
Overlooking Kansas City
Which had never had one before…

I will overlook my fantastic fountains
Admiring multi-colored people pointing up at me
Loving their astounded faces
I will be painted orange...Read More

My Molly Magpie endears to baked delights
Toiling in the afternoon, proving through the night
   Darkness raised the finest flour with courage
   Baked alive transformed, the test of scourge
Transfixed all mollified await the finest bite...Read More

And spilled some on the floor.
Then she grabbed a mop.

Has one and thirty ways 
to get the job...Read More

After spending nine months in the clutches
of the meanest art teacher alive or dead
Did not take it back up until I was forty-four
During grad school when I was in the clutches
of another...Read More

Please take this time to steer your thoughts
To a wretched land of lochs and glens.
Where a village was tasked and the people fraught
At the woe and sadness life could send.

With the Dragons gone and the Trolls dispersed
The villagers were still...Read More

Old Thatched Pub

In an old thatched pub in Dunnsmore for at least 300 years
The townsfolk gathered nightly for laughter and for beers
The music it was lively, the laughter it was loud
You couldn’t find a finer place or meet a better...Read More

A frosty mist caressed my face
As I chanced upon the place
Sitting high upon my load
Of pine logs on this snowy road

Urging Mike and Molly on
With steady strides their carillons
Were jingling-jangling through the air
And mingling with the treetops there

My horses turned...Read More

So I had to tell her to BLEEP off, Grandma.
She is fourteen, as of forty-six hours ago.
I am shocked.  
I wisely decide to give her some Grandmotherly advice.
Me:  Were there witnesses?
Molly: No.
Me:  Did anyone have their I-phone...Read More

Once upon these fine Seven Seas 
There was a pirate name of Jeeves
He plundered and took

Until love bug put him on knees.

Her treasure chests were of great fame
He caught her blue eye
And...Read More

from his peaty wet death hole, roots
lumps of peat and ling fell like black roses over his body
and the blood splattered fan of shattered gritstone
Three lads Sunday walk,...Read More

Quasi Mote - Oh Ephemeral Transit Across Proto Zones!

Strictly speculation from this mind,
who contemplates stripped down version
bajillion eons ago
cosmic bit sized dots
pinwheeled thru spatial void

repulsed and/or attracted
colluding (putin on the Ritz)
infinitesimal show stopper
devoid of prior rehearsal
since previous cosmic contraction

absent remembrance

Folks called her Molly and she was crying now 
She was deep in sorrow with a furrowed brow
An alabaster cross hung around her neck
Salvaged from rolling surf in that deadly wreck
Her left hand held the last rose of the season
While...Read More

At the dinner table
little Molly announced
she had two new play friends
I was happy to hear
she was interacting
with the children
at her new school
I knew how hard
it could be
being an only child
uprooted and 
landing in a new city
Molly was such
a shy little...Read More

Things that make me breathless....
The musical prowess of an innocent twelve-year-old who
Has no idea, she is bringing tears to my eyes
A tribute written in honor of me, called AKG
For Awesome Kid Grandma, 
Written by Molly, my nine-year-old
Granddaughter,

Things that make me...Read More

Couldn't find where this sweetie was at
Till we heard a tiny cry
She was always very shy
Finally found her stuck under my top hat

There are ANTS IN THE PANTS of Molly
While she was trying to mess
with Nicholas SCRABBLE 
She fell into the MOUSE TRAP
The mouse address themselves 
In CODE NAMES like CLUE

Grow tall
Grow your horizons, wide
Grow up
Grow on the inside
Grow yourself, all around
Tower above me
And smile down
You can grow, rapid
Or you can grow slow
Grow at your own pace
As long as you grow
Grow a little
Everyday
But baby please
Don’t grow away...Read More
