Normal Boy
A normal, average boy who loves math and science,
Soon to be fighting with evil and defiance.
Is in love with a girl he's know for years,
The death of his uncle brought him to tears.
He found his dad's glasses and wore them all day,
The thread of happiness he had, began to fray.
With an interest for spiders, he went to an arachnid museum,
Just so he could go see them.
But do more than see is what that spider did,
It crawled down from it's spider web.
He went home and did not know all night,
Until he woke up the next morning with a radioactive spider bite.
He was as fast as a cheetah, with ears like a bat,
Was smarter than Einstein, with senses like a cat.
With a mind so strong, he created his own web,
With a body so impetuous, as dangerous as lead.
He got his girl, they fell in love,
He saves people everyday, from heights high and above.
When it comes to the safety of the public, he's never tried harder,
After all, cut him some slack, he's only a normal boy named Peter Parker.
