memories may heal 
         but some cut so very deep ~
             stitches must remain

Torment's Puppet

Pain stitches the smile
Facade that becomes a mask
Strings hold the pieces
The invisible not seen
But the blood makes it okay

Stitches

To those of you who showed concern, thanks, but it was merely an attempt at 
humor; how some would be glad to shut me up....thanks again, tom

Premium Member Cut

CUT 
Stitches 
Big needles 

I ran and I fell 
The jar broke and cut me 
Thirteen stitches in my hand 

"Never run with glass in your hand"

Knee Jerk Reaction

I once had a Doc take some stitches Apparently not without glitches Because now when I sneeze I jerk at the knees And kick people in the britches

Jack Ellison

Writing of limericks he sure has a knack
Since he is gone I'll pick up the slack
I need a big word
Something really absurd
To keep us in stitches until he is back

Premium Member Dropped Stitch

Never flush
not tight fitting
a little bit out
not quite sitting 
right with the world,
I always was an odd bit of knitting,
two plain stitches instead of purled

Poetic Ink

Words of the poet can be a salve that heals,
       stitches that mend mankind's foibles.
The very breath of life contained in a phrase.

Premium Member The Ordinary Heart

The Invisible unpicked the stitches
holding the broken pieces together
like loud music Love spilled like poetry 
from the ordinary heart

Good old John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt's
Profoundly bawdy hysterical wit --
  Leaves farmers in stitches
  'Most burst their britches --
Too bad for this site his jokes are unfit

Premium Member Comical Movie--Dumb and Dumber

comical movie
had me laughing in stitches 
crazy versus crazier

kookie zany men
driving across the country
short on common sense

a bag of money
returning to the owner
brings total chaos

Premium Member Pigging Out Part 2

He would eat puddings and pies galore

And kept swelling and swelling some more 

So when his stitches popped

That's when his britches dropped 

Rumpled and crumpled up on the floor

Premium Member Summer Day Dip Disaster - Bawdy

Huge Harry swims in his G string Its stitches burst, he feels them ping His gonads are so small One hand covers them all His massive dong - it’s left to swing!

Stitches Short

Alive within my soul, toxic as can be
His words remove the stitches, that kept my heart a beat
True love was once the claim, if ever that were true
Sewing broken pieces was all he had to do

Tanka Style

The tree Limb snapped off;
it fell on the Lumberjack,
he needed stitches
it hurt him very badly;
He kept working all day, tho!

Premium Member Dream Prophecy

He won the propaganda war.
They knew what they were fighting for,
but the sheep were led astray,
and there is no flock left today.
The wolf is all in stitches,
as the pack feasts on the riches.

Find Glitches In Stitches and More

Find Glitches In Stitches

In everyone and thing, we find glitches,
So God will gladly help us sew stitches,
And a dirty deal,
Does not appeal;
God likes keeping minds out of ditches.

Premium Member Mary Kay

Blue haired jokester woman with a hey hey hey
Kept me in stitches and laugh lines most of the day
I loved everything about her; we called her May Kay.
When she wanted to leave, we begged her to stay!

Premium Member Onus

Saddled with this task
burden
beast
of razor colour scheme
years of crumbled paint
the dust in lungs
a poisoned dream
still clinging
holding breath
to clear the air
between the stitches of a seam

Premium Member UNDRESSED

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ summer's breath still warm~ then the sky cracks like wet slate. a gasp of cold air stitches through the golden grass. the earth shivers, half-undressed.
