  10. I look ruefully at the small, crumpled up piece of paper on the floor and sigh. I guess I should have known that someone, especially someone like Marcy, would have the heart to destroy my greatest creation. I had worked for months on that poem. I had been so proud of it.

  13. Stapled together on her desk lay her term paper, the corner where the grade was written turned down so she didn’t have too look until she was ready. Beside her on the bedspread sat her roommate and best friend, Valerie, who was all but vibrating with excitement.
    “Come on, Tam-tam. Look at it already!” she said, nudging her emphatically. “The suspense is killing me!”
    Tamsin bit her lip, nervously eying the paper from her seat. “But if I failed…”
    Valerie rolled her eyes. “You didn’t fail! You NEVER fail! So just scoot your fine ass over there and look at it already!”

  16. I stapled together all my important letters–
    the ones you sent years ago. Don’t know why I did that
    since I was planning to burn them. But at the last minute
    I decided to keep them.

  17. He stapled the papers together very tight, but he broke the staple and started over. How much school work did he need to bring home. He was trying to find an easy way to bring it, but was just used to using the older stapler for getting his stuff .

  23. I stapled my heart back together after it was broken into pieces by a jerk of a man. Now I realize that a good man would never break my heart just for the fun of it. My heart is mended, and now I use staples on paper only!

  24. i slumped down in my chair and put my head in my hands. I felt with my fingers the stapled corner of the two pages. I’d failed. “F” for “Fail”. How would i be able to make this up. It was simple: I wouldn’t.

  26. I began to follow his broad shoulders down the green gardens path. It was ripe with vines and berries of all sorts. Thinking on the love he and I shared..I felt almost lost all in this one moment. My hand reached out to him before I knew it had left my side and suddenly our lips were stapled against each others..in a place with no time or sound.

  28. My heart stuck to the inner workings of my chest. It was similar to that of glue..holding me in one place. One moment had defined my forever existence. My big doe-y, as some would call it, brown eyes welted up with new salty tears and I just couldn’t look away..I was stapled there.

  32. Visited a website: jobs.staplegun.us/copywriter. Thought I might look around a bit and see what my prospects are as a professional writer/editor. Also looked into another editor position. Maybe I just want to know what my skills are worth.

  33. Stapled.
    It should have been.
    But I lost the stapler.
    Like I do everything.
    Now it’s just a stack of loose papers.
    It’s meaningless.
    Just word out of order.
    Stapled.
    I wish.

  34. I cursed as the stapler stopped working. I groaned and slammed it against my paper, again and again, hoping to get the paper stabled, but it just wouldn’t work!
    “Damn this,” I muttered as I tossed it.
    I sighed, maybe it was just out of staples.

  35. “Why are these papers stapled together?”

    “Memo, sir. Every underwriter’s supposed to get it.”

    “Sir, I just said – ”

    “No, I mean like THIS.”

    Alan stared as his boss threw the papers at him, realizing only now that they were stapled together, but with the insides facing each other. Meaning you had to rip the papers apart to read anything.

  39. Organization is key, or so I am told. Binding papers together by having them stapled together seemed a great first step. Let us not forget that some pages should never be stapled to another.
