Zatanna versus the Ice Cream Toughs

Meanwhile, on the mean streets of Greenwich Village, our heroine Zatanna, dressed in her Headmistress of Hotath costume, contemplates her next torrid pillow-note to Dale Gunn, completely unaware that she is being menaced by two of that rough neighborhood's sinister (yet impressively poetic) Ice Cream Toughs, Mr. Vanilla and Mr. Strawberry..."Will you look at that?
Beautiful and all alone."
"I got dibs on 'er!"

Only in the Village do "toughs" lick ice cream cones while leering in perfect haiku. Please, boys, what are you going to do? Her hair?
Don't you know Zatanna prefers chocolate?

Dear readers, can you make an appropriate reply in Haiku?

  3. Trifle not with her,
    Ice cream boys; romance with Zee
    is a Rocky Road.

    "You call dibs on me
    And wear that shirt in public;
    you are indeed brave."

    Are older but not grown men.
    Calling "dibs?" Ye gods.
