Super

In my last post 'When limited become limitless' I showed you a wonderful limited edition Diesel aftershave for Captain America.

This got me thinking about how we all enjoy a good old bout of escapism seeing our beloved Superhero's on the big screen. Hollywood Studios have already released Thor, Xmen First Class, Green Lantern and Captain America this year. Next year we have Spiderman, Superman and Batman plus many more. Our caped friends are truly here to stay.

We all know that when these get released we have the usual tie ins with Fastfood outlets, Lego, EA and so on generating cups, t-shirts, burgers, lollipops, toys, games, and DVDs.

What fascinates me however are the people that gain inspiration from the crusaders and precede to create new typography, art,  flags and poems....its SUPER

So where’s my superhero?

When will he rescue me?

Me the lonely zero,

Who lives in reality?

So superhero where are you?

Why waste important time?

They say you’re sitting in a car

Instead of fighting crime.

So my silly superhero 

I thought that you could fly.

Why drive down crowded lanes

Instead of hugging the sky?

So superhero what’s with you?

They whisper that you’re ill,

Coughing and sneezing,

Can’t you rescue me still?

So superhero, do you feel better?

I see you and you’re not too far,

But no worries, I don’t need you anymore.

I already opened up my pickle jar.
