We see them on big screens and small ones
In comic books and in toy stores
Wearing their fancy outfits
With capes or masks or armor
They save the world
In big dramatic ways
Fighting the bad guys
Defending the helpless
Always on the side of good
Isn’t that what we do, too,
Or at least what we hope to do?
Together we work for a better world
Speak out against tyrants and bullies
Use our privilege
In service of those with less power
Trying always to answer the call of love
And this is where we learn to do it
Or learn to do it better
Or teach others to do it
This is superhero school
And we are all invited to enroll,
To choose the path of good
And become the kind of superheroes
Our world needs.
