Iʻm thinking of a word* that rhymes with "GLUE"

*but not necessarily a one-syllable word.

Maybe "Rhymes with
ʻdesiccatedʻ was an ordeal
everyone needs rest from!

I suspect you're right, Roland, but #2 was a guess.

Roland F Perkins
Wears horrible jerkins,
But comes up with rhymes
In the fastest of times.

NOT: few, clerihew*

b t w, itisn'tnecessarily a noun or adjective

*Though I'm not sure this
was really the guess of 7.

The picture of the glue is able to deeply permeate and tinge my mind.

(imbue?????)

Hint: Itʻs a 6-letter. 2-syllable
verb, not much heard in
ordinary conversation.
Sounds like a more common
verb preceded by a "prefix";
(no similarity in meaning).
though I donʻt think the 1st
2 letters are actually a prefix.

I try to avoid it but when I hear this word, I want to say "bless you".

NOT: ahchoo, clerihew, few, rue

My word wasn't ahchoo although it sounds very much like it.

Okay, I guess itʻs all right to leave "ahchoo" with the "nots", since it wasnʻt even a guess. I never did know how to spell what I just rendered as "ahchoo".

I had to abstain from guessing for a while since I was on vacation.

". . .makes me want to say ʻBless youʻ . . .(and) sounds very much like (ʻahchooʻ).
On 2nd thought I think
youʻve got it, @Jenni_Canuck (14, 16):
"e s c h e w".
Jim53, also, probably (18),
but @Jenni_Canuck was first.
