Two artists (Wayne Gagnon and Ken Molnar) went to a pub. They ate and they sipped ale. Wayne placed his tattered journal/sketchpad on the table along with two Bic 4-Color Ballpoint Pens. Ken and Wayne talked of life and self (and such) as they passed the sketchpad back and forth. Art and poetry are good. Life is good.
“Impasse Poem”
by Ken Molnar
Two not-quite-sages
Scribbled on pages
And talked of the ages
All night
They ate lots of fries
Put truth to their lies
Had a couple good cries
Alright!
They drove in a car
Though really not far
Were they done with this yarn?
Not quite.
Ken has a map
He might totally scrap
Or keep on his lap
As he drives.
As much as we joked
Wayne was prodded and poked
But Ken is stoked
Wayne saw a Light.
It’s time now to go
Outside it is cold
Inside, much less so
We’ve gone as far as we can go.
(for now)
Good night!
