THE Sidekick
Crime fighting with rhyme is fine
With my reputation flat on the line
But the responsibility can't be mine alone
When getting criminals to atone
Villains have henchmen to do what they do
So maybe a sidekick is what I need too
Someone to add a little zing to my verse
When the odds are becoming a tad adverse
And not be too much of a strain on my purse
I think I know just the person to ask
One I'm sure would be up to the task
Her forte is a legendary, a withering scold
Delivered to transgressors who need to be told
Villains ears flame red
When they've heard what she's said
Recognizing their naughty behaviour
Try to turn a new leaf in the misguided belief
She'll return them a comparable favour
She could pick up my back if stanzas fail
Those rare moments when they're of no avail
She'll be the perfect sidekick, that I know
The incomparable - Credenza LeBow
