Superheroes - Beth Crowley

If I could be a superhero,

what kind of superhero would I be?

First I would rule out Iron Man

'cause I am no genius with technology.

Couldn’t be Spiderman

my fear of heights ruins that plan.

My voice isn’t gruff enough to say

«I'm Batman.»

And I’ve always loved the song Kryptonite.

I like my clothes too much to Hulk out of them.

Don’t have Thor’s hammer skills to win a fight.

Aquaman let’s be real,

marine telepathy kind of a lame skill.

I don’t like running,

so the Flash is out.

One ring to rule them all has been done before.

I’m too prone to accidents for metal claws and

there can’t be five people in Fantastic Four.

I wouldn’t cut it as a superhero,

much to my shigrin.

So I’ll keep waiting for my Hogwarts letter

saying I got in.
