Falcon

FALCON

Orphan child
Came up wild
Child of Harlem
Black American
Lover friend of birds
His favorite the falcons
They a tune to him
This person name: Sam Wilson
Became an adult, went to college
Graduated became a Social worker
One day found himself on an island
Surrounded by criminals
One arch nemesis 
 from World War 2
The Red Skull exchanged bodies with Captain America
So the misguided hero hid from the good and the villians
Steve Rogers aka Cap trained Sam Wilson acrobatics and combat fighting
Days, weeks went by soon a fight they couldn't deny
With the help of a bird Sam's falcon, a new hero was born
Sam Wilson became new black american hero
Years later he partnered with Cap alias Cap's new sidekick
Also later became an Avenger
A decade later after Captain America wasn't able 
He was dying from lost of super-soldier serum
As of the later years the Falcon became the new..
Sam Wilson: Captain America a three year run
Fighting crime with Shield
Now he's back, the high flying Falcon
fighting crime in the streets of Chicago
