To My Very Best Friend

May 20, 2013
By Anonymous

I cannot wait until
I'm racing down the street
pushing your old-lady wheelchair
with its crimson Superman cape
flapping majestically behind you
as I cackle
and follow you in my Batman
underwear;
because you forgot to remind me
to put on pants.

My friend and I have constantly disagreed about who is the superior superhero - Batman or Superman. This poem is meant to capture the whimsical friendship that we share, and is kind of a vision of what I imagine our lives will be in 60 years.
