My Powers

It’s night, and I’m tired at night.

I don’t need to be powerful at night…

If someone is lost or hurt, well,

There must be other heroes out there.

If I stay awake too long, I could so easily turn.

So that I’ll see a group of people surrounding a cat in a tree.

And they point to me and they shout helplessly.

I will laugh and taunt.

Then I will fly away.
