Captain America's Shield
Captain America’s Shield
Who never would yield
Who could do this all day
And yet
Who’s that good?
Does it always circle around to freedom and courage?
Is it always concentric circles of bravery all the way to the core”
There’s got to be more, some dark chocolate underneath that candy shell
Of patriotism, self-sacrifice, perfect hair?
The shield has no name, it matches the flag, but lots has happened since
Things have heated and cooled several times while it, and you were on ice
Must you always play strong and nice?
Don’t get me wrong, there are enough tortured heroes, so you should do you
And The shield should stay true, but maybe
From time to time
There could be a few dents
