our hero has arrived

OUR Hero Has ARRIVED When we were children playing in the street we had our hero, usually a rugged actor perhaps it was Gary Cooper. He had to be tall walk with a swagger  To be able to do things like flying a plane, drive  a car, horseback riding a must  There was Mars, a planet we spoke of mainly because it sounded warrior-like We knew Mars was the planet our hero would go to Mars sorting out the people, there would be a shot out, he won easily despite a bullet hit his sheriff shield   When landed back on earth, spend time with us teaching us how to tame a wild horse  what do you know?  among us here and now, let me present our here of yore was not fantasy, Elon Musk! He lives or dreams, a hero who can do anything a beautiful mother who doesn't shout at him for not eating porridge and sardines He lives our dreams, and best of all, he is going to Mars and slay the dragon    Elon Musk is a living example that dreams  can become real, lamentable, it took too long most of my contemporaries have gone to Valhalla or for those who became sailors on the island of Saragossa
