Gluggamy-fluggamy

Grandfather Thaddeus

went to the grocery store

bought him a lime



Home with tequilla and

salt coated shot glass he

unceremonious

lost track of time.



Spitimous-bitimous

Grandma Penelope

done with her work early

home she did race.



One glance at Grandfather

mega-monstrosity

Grandma retreated to

Clyde's warm embrace

Spitimy-bitimy

One glance at Grandfather

Came to check out this wild title. That spitimous-bitimous will get a man in trouble every time he has the gluggamy-fluggamy, no doubt. Nice wordplay here and an interesting, kind of humorous take on a real problem for old gramps :)
