Sticking Poems

Sticking By A Troubled Friend

Problems come and problems go
But there's one thing you should know
If good friends stand by your side
Helping through the bumpy ride
Knowing love is all around
Till your back on level ground
The smallest problems disappear
Soon they are no longer there
Days are happier again
With the good kind hearted friends
Who never bailed or walked out
Their minds without a single doubt
Sticking by a friend in trouble
Running to you on the double
With hugs tightly warm and soothing
Holding on and never losing
Sight of what needs to be done
True friends will not leave or shun
They'll hang on until the day
Your frown turns the other way
Back into a joyful smile
That has been away awhile

Sticking to you

What was a gigolo to do?
"I'll fill my gherkin with glue!"
        Virgins said with a grin,
        "We're sticking with him,
You'll have naughty sons like you!"

Premium MemberHey Your Hair Is Sticking Up

Hey! Your hair is sticking up!
This news flash is from a seven-year-old.
I know, I tell him. It’s Dad hair.
I can’t do anything with it.
I have two cowlicks.
Sometimes they both stick up
looking like horns, which goes well with my personality.

You could comb it, my husband says.
He has bought me combs.
No idea where they are.
I have no interest in my hair or the hair of others.
So of course God made me the mother of three daughrers.
Two of them do their hair.
The other one is like me, we don't even like to wash it.

Tonight a male beautician asked me what I wanted.
I said “do whatever you want. I hate hair.”
“Great!” he said. “You will be the funkiest grandma in town.”
“I am already the funkiest grandma in town,” I informed him.
“Do a Mohawk. I don’t care.”
When he finished he said “I forgot to do the Mohawk.”
“That’s okay,” I told him. “My boss is conservative.”
But I did leave him a big tip
for not taking my advice.

Premium MemberThrough the Years

Through thick and thin we have come 
Through the years we have seen it all
We have been through all there is
And still sticking together 
Standing tall through it all
Thank you for believing in me
Even when I did not believe in myself 
Thank you for being battle ready
When forces of darkness attacked
Thank you for not saying no
When situations looked gloomy
Thank you for being who you are
For you are one in a million

poetry is like
spaghetti thrown at a wall
at times, you may miss
but the dog always approves
so all is well in the ‘verse

Sticking To Identity

That which does me distinguish 
I cannot just relinquish
Before Cameras “Slender”
Why would I change My Gender?
All along An Insider,
My name Wilder, not Spider …

Does one seek identity
Making one Non-Entity;
Face to face with things The Right
And still opting for The Tight:
Hitherto not a Villain
Why now to it a steely chain?

The wind does not skirt billow
With Girl’s head on a pillow.

Sticking It

The fridge is full of magnets
From the travels we have made,
Small tokens to remember 
All the cities where we've stayed.

It's nice to add a new one 
So as soon as I've unpacked,
I squeeze it next to others
Where it's certain to attract.

I sometimes wonder, though, if time
Will be a foe or friend.
Will my fridge run out of room before 
My travel days do end?

Sticking Sisters

We stick together like glue on paper
Late night secrets
And pillow fights
I steal your clothes 
You wear my shoes 
We argue about little things
But our laughing is nonstop 
Holding hands on our adventures that never end
Splashing in the puddles wearing matching rainboots 
Sitting on rocks and talking a lot
Nobody could ever replace you 
Because your my sister
And I love you a whole lot

Sticking Creeps

Speaking bout creeps they crawl, they aint tall but chase you till you run out and you gone,
Speaking deep out of experience, the resilient take a right grip at first sight because they are tough at their course,
Seeking a solution for the none of course cause they change like chameleons, stick over, under, on walls, to be honest they are full of guts, to my deeper goats or horns they have walls,
No wonder wise said walls have ears, 
Sticking to these creeps, they aint stupid they have goals,
They rip,
They dont keep secrets, they are generally ingrates,
They aint cheap,
They sail in mearchant ships,
The reep what they havent sown,
They enslave more than french fries and chips,
Beware of Sticking Creeps.

Sticking It To Bill Clinton

A voodoo witch I bought it from,
A voodoo doll of Bill Clinton,
I stuck it with a great big pin,
But all Bill did was,grin,grin,grin,
That witch just might've been a con.


authors note: only a poem and I am a fan of Bill Clinton.-
I chose him because he's a big enough man to take a joke

Hear it chugging and tasle
                                         The sun has gone down
                                         Twilight, is still not dark
                                   Small steps ... chugging and tasle
                                         The dog is standing still
                                           Sniffing and listening
                                           Sounds comes closer
                                   A small ball comes out of the bushes
                                      My favorite toy, the dog thinking
                                       Sticking her nose up ..... but ...
                                       The ball is full of sticking spines
                                            it makes a hissing sound
                                     Hedgehog will not play with the dog

With God I'M Sticking

Even when Satan starts a picking,
With God I'm sticking. 
When Satan starts to be bite,
I'm telling him goodnight. 
That battle the Lord will fight,
and to Satan, I say with me all is well,
I have the victory. 
Go to hell you ineffective enemy!

I'M Sticking To My Story

What do you mean you’ve been around assholes long enough to pick out the sweet ones?
There’s no way in hell you know what I’m talking about.
You’ve never felt this way, or maybe you thought you did.
I can’t help the guys you dated, but you can’t sit here and judge the one I like.
Yours were assholes.  
Mine’s just confused. 
He can’t help what he’s feeling.  
He can’t help feeling afraid.
I’m not going to press him.
You go ahead and think what you want, but I’m sticking to my story.

I can’t have you trying to tell me what to do when you’ve never been with a guy for more 
than three months.
Does that make you an expert?  
I don’t think so.  
Whatever, girl.
Think what you want, but I’m sticking to my story.

How many times have you been with a guy that called you beautiful?
How many times have you cared enough about another human that you were willing to let 
go?
How many times have you sat back and watched that same person flirt endlessly with 
countless girls while you have no power whatsoever?
You don’t know how I feel.
Think what you want, but I’m sticking to my story
