Short Spark Plug Poems

Electrical spark, you are nothing without me!
Brags arrogant spark plug, my cousin, Lee.
Distributor gets mad and keeps current back.
Cylinder gives spark plug a mighty ugly mean whack.
Gasoline engine starts up now in the right way.
Jealousy handled by Cylinder, because she don’t play!...

Long Day at work
He returns
as a red-eyed wolf

Quiet room
and shiny desks
His minds keep busy

Eyes staring
on wet pavements
No more Fire

Then I See You
crow's feet landing on my eyes
Fired Up!

Messages conveyed
even a thick glass
cannot stop your anger

There is Fire 
in all working people
They all need a spark plug

Patient was tarred by the new angle
A warning signal
Became the new rock and roll
In this injury toll

Spark plug 
Was whirling around down the mug 
With a smug

How come?
Those eyelashes became glum 
Millions of toes stood up, danced to the beat of the drums
Just this once, they ...hmm...
But why, a straight thumb
Pointed at that rhumb
Behind the bay rum

So...how come?
Grasses needs to bum 
A plum 
Until the their roots go numb...

This old lady feels 
like a broken down car
Many miles on her feet
Joints need oiled, 
so they can move
A new censor
her memory is failing 
Has to have a spark plug
to keep her heart ticking smoothly
Her bones are as brittle
as the wiring gets at times
Eyes are getting dim
like the headlights do
Only thing not needed is the horn
she keeps on a tooting
Overall, she just needs 
totally restored.

What's Bugging You

a ladybug lands
another land in the midst
a breathtaking view

hey there hey there ladybug 
come right here and let us hug 
it's nice to hold
you're very bold
but I'm a lonely spark plug.

if you can't believe your own eyes then close them~~and use your other eye
