Traps
My jelly is Trappist,
Filled with love and simplicity.
Love it simply
I do.
When I make my sandwich
I spread it
On the bread
Thick and seedy.
Once upon a time,
in 1919,
Boston
was flooded by
two million gallons of
molasses.
Trucks were turned.
Trains were heaved.
Buildings--demolished.
Twenty-one people drowned.
Imagine
If it were jelly.
Raspberry jelly.
Trappist raspberry jelly,
Filled with love and simplicity
And raspberry seeds.
