Short Gluing Poems

A lone butterfly
With eyes closed for a time
Gluing on petal...

Oh poor mouse
You picked the wrong house
No Buddhist I
Though I did nearly cry
When I wrought your end
I’m a treacherous friend
You begged to be my pet
I’m not that evolved yet
What a price to pay
For a crumb each day
At least it was quick
One more bad tick 
On my karmic slate
Gluing my fate...

Diligently she
labors
gluing 
her splintered heart
   fragments
back   together

But there's a missing piece
that just seems to be gone...
she's looked   everywhere 
   just everywhere

Must be   you took it
   when you walked
   out the door,
Stuffed it    
   in your pocket
and forgot
to give it back....

Unstylish twin brothers, the Fritzes

were gluing on crackers (in bitses)!

Were they nuts in the head?

When we asked them, they said,

“We’re just trying to put on the Ritzes!”

efficient Eddie eliminated evil Edna’s eyeglasses
flustering Frannie Florence, furthering father’s frankness forever
generous Ginnie gave glasses glorious glam, gluing garbage
hallow Hal hinted heroics, having Henry’s huffy habits
ideas ignited, illuminating idiocy in Illinois, Iowa and Idaho
juicy judgement jockeyed jointly, justifying judicial jury...

Every day we made a life pact 
We will make it for a friend fact 
The very first day she touched me 
You saw my lonely heart set free

The day my mortal body broke 
I saw you by me in the smoke 
Painful healing nearly broke me 
You again reminded me of we 

The day she broke my faithful heart, 
we never spent a day apart 
Gluing the pieces together 
I knew together forever 

In the mirror I reflected, 
it was me, as I suspected...

It's noon
I'm on the way of Shahbagh
Before the National Museum
Pineapple, Mango, Litchi
scatter their scent,
Sweetest flavor of Jackfruits
loots my nostrils

Gluttonous flies
flying over the seasonal foods

The summer sun
fries my skin; oh its burning hot
No air is flowing
Your fair makeup is gluing,
sweating, blowing

Fearless the dog in supine
In the crowded it closes its eyes
Global warm pierces it, need cool air! '

The secretion of a Lilly is often mistaken for the timbers of a concrete ball. Many a time is the goldfish singing for a curry. Golden gophers gluing glitter. A wolf dancing in a stew of peas is more happy than a porcupine on a rocket powered skateboard.ooooh grammar of framing a drugged frog is as indigestible as spinning around the earth twice after consuming large amounts of beer. Like a tidal wave then. Humming. Humorous isn't it. Turbulent tambourines turning tripe. Intoxication z....
