Crop of Moles
By George W. Clever-----1 March 2017
Scratch my skin
Underneath you will find a farmer
Still growing crops in my 80th
year
What kind of crops you ask?
I’m growing moles
No, not the kind of critters burrowing in the ground
These are bumps on skin turned black red or brown
To my surprise moles appear in different sizes
A new one seems to show up each day
Went to a doctor to learn the cause
Just excess pigment I was told
Had’em since you were young
Showing up now you are old
Doc checked my face back and
thighs
Look for cancerous ones he did advise
They can be removed I was informed
Harvest my crop
I’ll see if they can be sold
My grandfather’s face was covered with moles
Goodbye kisses were
a challenge
Found his clear face place as a kid
Guess he passed moles on to me
Will give them all to my children’s grandchildren for free
