Poem
*Holly (Vault Dweller)* Hey bartender, Who's that girl over there, The one nursing the whiskey in the corner, She has that press hat one that makes her look...strangely debonair. *Bartender* That'll be our little Ms. Piper Wright, She runs the local paper, Spends all day looking for a story then types the rest of the night, Bit standoffish at first but quite the looker. *Holly* Hahah I'll say, Just look at that red trench-coat and suit, And that piercing stare, Comes off tart as a mutfruit, But it just bounces right off her wavy hair, And goooosssh those lips, Their silky sheen betrays the steel of her gun, Dangling from her buxom hips, Armed with an unabashed tongue, Clearly her deadliest weapon, Complimenting her feisty spirit perfectly preserved in an hourglass figure both fair and young, Fully stocked with an arsenal of wisecracks, worthy armaments for free speech's most sensuous bastion, Avid journalistic endeavors personify her inquisitive nature, Reporting the most controversial conspiracy or the latest Publick Occurrences, With jaw-dropping headlines fueled by her insatiable determination not even the mayor can escape her snooping typewriter, How this vixen has eluded both the aging of time and voraciousness of lovers is beyond me, And I think I'm allllmost drunk enough to go over and talk to her, Should only take me another couple of rounds before I'll have the guts to...ah who am I kidding, I'm over 200 years old there's no way she'd ever go for a pre-war relic regardless of who well preserved. *Bartender* News flash buddy, she's single, Read today's headlines and you might find the subtle hints, Listen to her playful comments of life and lust weaved in-between the innocuous babble, The words may take their place in the articles but her true message is hidden underneath the paper's yellow tint, She's young and lookin for love just the rest of us here in the Wasteland, So what've you got to loose hotshot go get her, Or do you need another round on the house give you the upper hand? *Holly* Well damnit bartender one more round it is, If you don't from her till morning it'll be one of two things, Either I've been utterly rejected and lying in a ditch, Or I'll be too busy ignoring the world trying to make her mine.
