Mrs. Malooly

Agnes Lee

MRS. MALOOLY has gone to her rest,

Who scrubbed Manhattan’s marble aisles.

She has forgotten, forgotten, forgotten

The mop and broom

And the patterned tiles.

Mrs. Malooly has gone to her rest

In the smooth-dug loam, to a rest so deep

She has forgotten, forgotten, forgotten

The unmade bed

And the whiskey sleep.
