May the 4th Be With You

A barmaid with bosom to spare
Decided they needed more air
A crone on a stool
Saw all the men drool
Since their chests were covered in hair!

She Is a Cartoon

She is a cartoon 
a sketch of her former self
she is a comic
no one sees her anymore
she is older now
opinions have atrophied
an invisible old crone, me.

Stash

An old crone who was living in Moffett 
Sold all her household wares for a profit 
She was simply bold, 
[At least I am told], 
To stash all the money in her soffit.

Frilly Red Knickers Show Time

(aka "Trump's Bottom Line")

Cartel Jesus launched an old crone
High over Trump's Wall on a drone
Our Border Patrol
Went out of control
Snapping photos with their iPhone!

Hiding In a Witch Boot

cackling creepy cantankerous caustic crone
frightfully ferocious, fanatical, and I’m all alone
I hide in a boot, going as far as I dare go.
She shoves in her foot. Immediate woe!

Witch

Wicked aged woman,
wreaking harm with cauldron,
warty nose, crafty eyes;
Wisdom sees through dark guise!
When riding purple broom,
wild crone cackles at moon.
Warblers on crimson skies.

They Did Not Need Us Anyway

No one liked The Old Crone Nose she was simply so odd
Warned to stay away from her by our prissy mothers
Befriended by another woman Crazy Old Dodd
Now neither of them needed any of us others

Sour Ambitions of a Puny Mind

Contrived to be relevant
An extreme subversive 
of distorted concoctions
While having his stricken soul bare
And denigrated to a faceless crone
For his vicissitudes are an improbable casualty
Of a broken soul....

Crazy Cat Lady

Crazy Cat Lady
sat in the rocking chair
her dress quite fady
her colour so fair
but the felines around
gave me the creeps
even in this roaring crowd
i could hear her weep
for she was quite alone
i saw when looked at me the crone....

Aged Out

An miserable old crone lived down the way Invited young men into her house to play, I can't imagine it, really, It seems to me perfectly silly She wouldn’t give us old men the time of day.

Marooned

Bound up, restrained
my skin's too tight,
I want to howl the moon.

I wring my hands
fright is my plight
ev'ning comes too soon.

Mirrors quiver
in ambient light
to an aged crone, I croon.

No where to run
at each twilight
alone, inside, marooned.

Attitude of Wise Seasoned Crone

The older woman is seasoned, sassy and secretive, just ask Ms Mim
She can unleash her confidences, but she has learned to keep them
Knowing when to keep quiet, is learned in the hardest of ways
But the experienced crone realizes it makes for much better days

Fourteen Ticks On Her Back

She has fourteen ticks on her back
And she is still alive
I thought she would be dead by number five

How many ticks is it going to take
to kill this old broad, do I buy a snake?

Ticks on her back. How many do you see?
I wish this old crone was anyone except me.

Let the Old Lady Do It

I jump up with glee
let the old lady do it
certainly they mean me

In the school yard
I am the only crone here
happy to play

no retirement
I could not stand being home
bring the body bag

children are cheering
the soccer ball comes my way
it goes to the moon

Arrogant Crone

I can read your mind she says
she is a crone, old and wizened
Arrogant and haughty, aloof, opinionated
But not magical or empathetic
She is not my idea of goodness
I paste a frozen smile on my face
which she is not wise enough to read or understand
and go another direction

Lass knew
Glass shoe

The Emperor’s new clothes
So rich
No stitch

Sees Ted
Flees bed

Hansel and Gretel

The Three little Pigs
Skilled pigs
Build digs

Puss in Boots
Odd that
Shod cat

Muse-Demons Chant

muse-demons chant

a heart a lust a thought

Angels throw thrilling light

blinding all eyes

sin stalks grains of life

mixing sun dust forest sea

hate and love burn one face

tears fall to try

to grace the gown’d crone


in her webbed rocking chair

as bread turns to stone…

What Will That Old Crone Do

They never know what a crone like me will do
I have news for them
I never know myself
Sometimes God has me do things that make no sense
I am wondering “Where did that idea come from?”
especially when it works beautifully.
Forgetting for two seconds
that I have never ever
been in charge of me.

Finding a Fountain

A man went to the mountain
He heard there was a stone fountain
On a steep flat top
He came to a stop

A rock got loose
He had to choose
A way to avoid the stone
So he stood still like a crone

It fell to the ground
To join a great mound 
To find the stone fountain
He continued up the mountain

Looked In a Mud Puddle

Looked in a mud puddle and saw a witch.
She laughed at me. The mean ‘ole crone.
I was not happy certainly not amused.
Her eyes were as dark as a cave without light.
She crooked her finger and tried to speak.
I ran as if bowels of hell were waiting.
Hair stood straight up as I heard her witch cackles.

Foolface

When I look in the bathroom mirror
what I see causes me much fear.

My reflection is not my own
but rather of a wicked crone.

She is trying to take my life
So I must quickly end this strife.

To the kitchen to get a blade
this evil skin will soon be flayed.

I take aim at the mocking face
and thrust the blade with rapid p

It's Too Early To Write Poetry

A summer evening rarefied
An elder spirit clarified,
Made spare and true, the ingenue
Long bid adieu returned anew
To walk with me and disagree
On wrong and right then reunite
In love's accord our faith restored;
Late magic hour to endow her,
Naught overcomes such sweet power,
Wise crone to some, yet my flower.

Crone Drone

Please let me be a tiny drone today.
Hovering at a house far away.
In Omaha at a quarter ‘til two.
I’ll see my grandchildren, that’s what I’ll do!

I’ll buzz past their heads and give them a wave.
All six will laugh, giggle, rant, wiggle and rave.
Hello Space Grandma! Please land and stay!
I am a crone drone, I’ll yell, then I’ll fly away.

Crone

An withered crone in a park
where the young play.
Her eyes are deep set
but the blue within them is clear.
Her flesh clings to crooked bones,
yet she is a vision 
there among the youthful,
a message for all those 
who will overcome.
She’s foreshadowing, an augury
that we all must, in the end,
survive ourselves
with a formidable and life well lived.
