Fly like Superman.
Climb walls like Spiderman.
Lasso the truth out of people like Wonder Woman.
Fight crime like Batman.
You get the idea..
Then I think. So many wrongs to right. So little time.
Wonder how many people would step up to the job? Then, after all the novelty wore off, would they stick to it?
These lyrics sum it up:
"Superman never made any money,
from saving the world from Solomon Grundy.
And sometimes I despair the world will never see another man,
like him"
"Sometimes when Supe was stopping crime,
I'll bet that he was tempted to just quit
and turn his back on man,
join Tarzan in the forest"
Maybe that's why superhero's are fantastic, imaginary images of what we aspire to be.
Dig deep, there's probably a superpower in you waiting to surface... to make a difference.
Just remember though,
With great power comes great responsibility.
