Glow Experimental
Madame Curie created quite a glow
All superheroes owe her love and debt
How they will repay, little I know
But just the thought of it has made me whet
She's dead, so let's forget our quid pro quo
But if her geiger-specter were to rise!
You'd see her radiate in tights and cape!
Her vapor trail across Parisian skies
Would herald her miraculous escape
Forcing her to revive her Polish ties.
And soon the franchise offers would roll in
Burger toys would sport her glowing face
On tarmacs they'd unfurl gold tarpaulins
With Curie shown a' flyin' into space
(Pierre's part in the show played by James Brolin.)
Then Futureland, at Disneyland, Paris
Would host a "Giegerland" glow-worm race!
And Curie's Glowing Pitchblende Mansion scare us
And perhaps, for ultimate disaster prepare us!
And maybe fight Cruella for a parking space
Pardon me, I penned the last line in a daze.
I must have been hit by one of Curie's rays
