Not Half Plaid
 
 
The “Riddler” has nothing on me
he pondered as he searched for a way
along the back alleyways
and dark byways of the night.
 
Sure his clothes are adorned
with a bit of green here and there
but those hideous question marks!
His taste is in a word; Very Questionable!
 
OK. You’re right. That was two words.
 
The “Cat in The Hat” has nothing on me
scratching his head as he strolled
along the back alleyways
and dark byways of the night.
 
Sure his clothes are adorned
with a bit of red and white here and there
But those hideous stripes!
His taste is in a word; Not half plaid!
 
OK. You’re right. That was three words.
 
“The Mask” has nothing on me
covering his face as he crept
along the back alleyways
and dark byways of the night.
 
Sure his clothes are adorned
with a bit of yellow here and there
but that hideous tongue!
His tongue is in a word; Tasteless!
 
I finally got it right! That was one word *Bigsmile*
 
“Jessica Rabbit” has nothing on me
he daydreamed as he meandered his way
along the back alleyways
and dark byways of the night.
 
Sure her clothes are adorned
with a bit of red here and there
but those sparkly sequins!
Her taste is in a word; voluptuous!
 
OK. You’re right. That was two items. *Inlove*
 
He finally realized as he found his way
along the back alleyways
and dark byways of the night.
Everyone's taste is different; not half bad!
