Plip-plop or plip, plop ???
Drip-drop or drip drop or Drip! Drop! ??

Just don't use the multiple "?" and don't worry about the space after the last "!". Just make it "!?". Even that's not really proper grammar though so I'm no sure. In poetry you don't have to use proper grammar all the time. Just say you did it on purpose.

Oh...maybe I miss uderstood. Is that your poem verbatim? Like do you really have this...
"Plip-plop or plip, plop ???
Drip-drop or drip drop or Drip! Drop! ??"
...word for word in your poem? Because any of those ways to say "plip-plop" is fine...

Could you help? Could anyone help? Puh-puh-puh-leeeeze?
