Echo
Like, from within boiled kettles raise sprites, Maya the Echo,
Dominates Marvel Comics with her facial art deco;
Adopted daughter of Kingpin, lion-like rough villain,
Kills her father; rears her, like wolf-child, to fill his guilt in...!
Scenes, like plays, tell us Maya in mentally disabled,
With pomp education, she is psychically enabled;
With Matt Murdock, like bee in honey, she fast falls in love,
Lo, she hunts him down; tigress-like! As though in hand and glove...!
Does Matt murder sooth her heart? Isn't he the Daredevil?
Truths revealed by Matt, adopted father she does bevel;
Like sages meeting the chosen saints, she turns to herself,
Making peace like nail and flesh, she opens long-locked inner shelf...!
Photographic reflex; like heaven and hell, Echo held,
Mimicking any one, like Photostat, magic she spelled;
Avenged and revenged, like ready-made robot, rough and tough,
She could dare to kill anyone who she found a born bluff...!
Love with Moon Knight? Wow! Echo, indeed, is great in power,
She could make or mar anyone within any short hour:
Who can I trust? Who can you trust? O, all games seem to end,
When mysteries revealed, by men and monsters, magic bent...!
