Ode to Silly Putty
January 1, 1996
O glorious, globous goo,
You don’t know how much I love you.
Pinkish substance, stretching mass,
Imprint yourself upon my mind.
You are quite silly, O Silly Putty.
You stay with me through clean and muddy.
Show me backwards newspaper print,
Ball of glory, Egg-shaped beauty,
Be careful not to pick up lint.
Whether pancake, ball, or snake,
My love for you is no mistake.
You are forever my bouncing buddy.
Please stay with me, my pink devotion,
O glorious, globous Silly Putty.
