dusk had long befell westchester
it had been another long semester
cards lit up as they tried to arrest her
kinetic energy burned a hole in the cop's polyester
and froze a wrist
dropping that southern bell with the kiss straight from hell
shouts of "cease and desist"
but the cajun couldn't resist
"mais no!"
out flew the king, the jack, the six
and into his arms fell the queen that he would miss
who never could feel the thrill of bliss
but into the sky they flew
dodging bullets, feeling this
as "grab the mutant scum!" rang out
"But this is a school for the gifted!
Sugah plum"
at the time when most the county slumbered
the two weary x-men realized that they were outnumbered
The scarlet wanderer ducked and covered
and under a tree they discovered
a hundered other changes of the mood
up from the ground came the shrieking of the brood
"This is bad science fiction mon ami!
My deck is fifty two and I've been wittled down to three"
"and the rest of the x-men have been taken into custody"
all hope seems lost
the authorities view the mutants as the leaders of the brood
"eradicate at all costs!"
SWAT teams, SEALS, and special ops
military
seem to have the upper hand
but aye yo quite to the contrary
cop cars and guns and metal went flying
balberings accelerated and burned through skin frying
magnetic shield engulfing
telepathic eye spying
What was magneto now trying?
wondered Charles from afar
and what are these cops hiding?
is he after us
Then he realized magneto was after proteus
who was locked up in hiding
he grabbed the boy criminal but was twisted by subliminal
the cops ran beyond the vestibule
snd I sit here watching it all, i don't like to mingle
but I had to move when my spidey sense tingled
webbed hole by the brood
"give me back those x-men, theft is rather rude"
