and being oh so small evermore.
The laughter contorts my face
all over and under the place
A fort- grandiose and large-
we would pretend it was a barge
or a spaceship flying to the stars,
no thoughts or scars
my brother and I.
Saving the world-
Our capes unfurled
held to us by clothespins,
in my age everyone wins.
The capes gave us the power to do nothing and everything
Our capes gave us a theme song we used to sing.
Playing Gameboy under a blanket fort-
Our parents eyes we would secretly thwart.
our capes flying in the fan-
we had the biggest wingspan,
my brother and I.
