The Trouble with Pluses

This is the trouble with pluses--
They often turn into big Midas machines.

When we are tying our trusses,
We cannot begin to imagine our dreams.

Finding a fort in the treetops,
One of us tempted a hummingbird down.

Now that we've punctured our Cyclops,
Let's take a trip to the riverboat town.
