“Molly”

A Poem by TTBoy

The faster he ran

the more Molly went

with him up his nose

Swearing the two of them

were over

without her he was not

With Mommy and Daddy

denying their relationship

their son furnished

someone else’s house because

of her

As disowning him would

do no good

neither would meeting him half-way

Molly dated many while with him

and still does

And she offers no prejudice

for whose life she invades

Stronger than any exorcist

She is more demanding

than Hell

More needed than teeth or

extremities

or even supper

She gives evil its power
