Grandpa Vernon's Poems

My grandpa, Vernon Pofahl, was a farmer in Medford, MN. One of his hobbies was writing poetry.

The check out

This pharmacy, a jungle cave,
The entrance guarded by a web of steel,
That I must enter would I depart.
And at the center Arachne waits,
To take my blood and then,
To puncture my poor heart.

V. Pofahl
1979
