Long Onomatopoeia Poems

includes a stub, a tub,
a carelessly careful curation,
a velvet rope, a hint of hope,
a folding chair, softened and stickied

I come to your bedside once more,
you've poured our photos and poetry on the floor

Catching the last shot of the sunset sky
Even more rustier than before
Delayed my departure.

To a bumbulating beat.
See us zim zam zoom

And with a taste, it's completely rotten.
