Spiderman Proposes To Little Miss Muffet

Sat on a sedan

Spiderman took her hand.

 

Went down on one knee

And said

Will you marry me?

 

I cannot face

The rest of eternity

With each generation's

Take on modernity.

 

It's old fashioned values

I look for and see -

Your confidence,

Common sense,

Your honesty,

Sincerity,

Your quirkiness

And peacableness.

But most of all

Your peerless take on life

Is what does it for me.

 

Will you be my wife?

 

Spiderman, Spiderman,

How you do woo!

And you have such qualities

That draw me to you -

 

Your patience,

Respect,

Your considerable intellect,

Your gentleness,

Strength of mind -

 

I could go on at length and find

You could be my cobweb?

I could be your fly?

Could you be the man for me

Until the day I die?

 

What more can I say than

You may have concurred

That I do things my own way.

 

So can you guess?

 

Little Miss Muffet Said Yes!

 

And do you know what?

 

As they lay there

On that Le Corbusier chair

Without a care in the world -

 

And you know it's not novel

To be graphic -

 

They were not afraid at all.

Notes

The third of a trilogy about Little Miss Muffet and Spiderman. If you read the other two this will make even more sense. Little Miss Muffet Meets Spiderman is first and then An Omega Male's Graphic And Novel Ode To Little Miss Muffet.
