Spidy Man Dragon

Dragon saw a Spiderman costume at the local department store. We were there for Dragon Food- You know- little charcoal briquettes. How else could he keep his fire a lit, on a cold and snowy night? Naw, just kidding… They’re big briquettes for a barbecue that night. Dragon suddenly wanted to be Spiderman. I wish this, you could see! His suit stretched so very far… then add a tail and wings to the spree. He put the local spiders busy, spinning a great web in a very, big tree. Unfortunately when he sat on it, he weighed a tad too much! Golly Gee! It had left him hanging, upside down; nose to the ground, until his fire lit! Next he tried to climb the walls, but couldn’t understand why he didn’t stick! So he used a whole tube, or two, of Gorilla glue, just to finally do the trick. He was finally able to hang upside down, tho he couldn’t get back down, Quick! Being a Hero Spiderman is tough, with a tail, and it’s said, a very strange mind! He used Silly String to shoot webs from his hands. It didn’t work, not one time. Silly String blew back into the air, getting stuck in his wings, tail, and hair. He had to fly, to stay in the air, plus he didn’t stick when he finally, got there. Sadly, it didn’t do well with fire. Can you say the word ‘poof’? When it sprayed! You can say: He didn’t have enough legs to stand on. Get it? Spiders have eight! He quickly tumbled into despair as he kept being confused with… Lizard Man… Also: Swamp Thing, the Creature from the Black Lagoon, and Tree Frog Man… Finally, he became known as ‘Dragon Fly Man’, and was back within the game! I’ve always told him: If you can’t beat em! Join em! So that became his refrain. Dragon cruised all over town, as he looked, to some how, finally, save the day. Suddenly, a farmers’ bull got lose, and spied the Sheriff of CrazyLand. O..K..!!! You guessed: He was bending over, a red bandana, hanging from his back pocket! The bull tossed his head, put it down in position, then took off like a giant rocket! Dragonfly swooped in, just in time, grabbed the sheriff, and lifted him in the air! Flying toward the farm, he bumped the sheriff on the ground, often, but with flair! That was because; they say… his costume, every so often, got in Dragonfly’s way! And of course the Bull added insult to injury, a time or two, adding to the fray! All were saved, tho the Sheriff might have trouble sitting down, for a little while! And everyone said, his cape, with its Capital D, was perfectly worn, in great style! Now I ask you… Who said Dragon, when flying, can’t hit the broad side of a barn? Well, the Trolls arrived swiftly, fixed the fence, and rebuilt the barn, so badly torn! Yes, it ended as a Great News Day… With film at Six… on TV… they say! The Moral: Super Heroes come in many forms, so just be ready to save the day!! Written 9-19-2016
