A New Superhero

By day, a poet who writes By evening, one who fights For the good of all, the protector of the weak. Stay on rooftops, many stories high Descend to the ground, from the sky If evil is there, it will be that, I will be sure to seek There! A maiden in distress! Evil, ripping at her dress. Here I go to save her and send him far away. Upon the ground, at this hour Evil, defeated by my power This beautiful maiden has chance for a better day. Her smile, she gave gratefully She could not stop thanking me For this act of kindness, I had chosen to do. “It was nothing, ma’am”, I surely said Now that evil was defeated and has fled “Just remember, I’ll always be watching out for you”
