Mister Amazing Has Cape Issues
I need to remember who originally owned my superman cape.
Do you realize it's not all just a dream?
Do you know what I mean now by patterns?
They were, now, and will be
Forever present and pliant around you.
So can you tell me where the cape might be?
With it I could do amazing things.
Without it I'm missing the cape. And nothing amazing has occurred.
I can tell by the way I feel, they wish I had the cape on.
I can't find the cape. I don't remember if I have the cape on or not.
I hate the cape. Because I think I need it.
Though I know the cape would rather be me in a heartbeat.
Since I'm real and I have a heartbeat.
That is, if a cape could ever want something.
