Dealing with Hard Times

basically I am just
your average superhero
when the stars align
and the pips tumble well

I have had my
square-inches of spot-light
and my
telephone booth moments

so when fate sees fit
on occasion
to tear my wings
in mid-flight
I hold the scowl
drink the whiskey raw

because if everyone flew
the skies would be too crowded.
