Unlike Kryptonite

The superhero's existential dilema
inviting in intellectual exercise
their alienation from their
love


but felt in real life~
draining unlike kryptonite
it twists in human weakness
this fragile boy
fatherless like some hebrew myth


romantic era recurrence
the banner flying overhead
the pool strata neighborhood fence
one leap like braniac
shape shifting stealing hens


hour by hour
returning to this hate
and feel this superhero
who has fallen
unlike kryptonite


but as to see
a focus of this simple pain
externally
and my DNA
in want of outlets
writes in secrecy
for anyone to see


this moment
these days
focused on why
who can see
an understanding of pain
hypocrisy and fallacy
flawed
unlike kryptonite


a true love fights
and stumbles hard
hurting all around
with words more than actions
unlike kryptonite
this banishment hurts
and it twists and lingers
wonder from man


tantalized and tortured
any way you slice it
unlike kryptonite
pain like the milky way
only felt fully
in deep unconsciousness
this boy is no superman
but his Father that breaths
during sleep is good
and the sun will rise
unlike kryptonite
