“Modern Marvel”

She’s a comic-book goddess
Come to life before his eyes
Having leapt out from the pages
Without so much as her disguise

Masquerading as a waitress
At his favorite late-night haunt
Never long behind the counter
But she’s the one thing they all want

See her once and you’ll be shaken
Second time’s where danger lies
When you meet on that third visit
Don’t linger too long in her eyes

When she talks so animated
It’ll take you by surprise
She’s so simply understated
For all the physics she defies

While he pretends to read the menu
It’s a struggle not to stare
Musing at this modern marvel
Like some forbidden double-dare

Making milkshakes for the mallers
Frosting pudding with whipped cream
His story drawn in muted colors
She stands out like some fevered dream

See her once and you’ll be taken…

Masquerading as a waitress
At his favorite late-night haunt
Never long behind the counter
Cause she’s the one thing they all want

See her once and you’ll be shaken…
