The Reality of It

In the real world:
Superheroes have broken bones.
They are covered in bruises.
Most are actually dead.
[And sidekicks are meat-shields.]

In the real world:
Evil is victorious.
Bad guys have aim.
And the zombies always win.

In the real world:
There are no superheroes.
Bad guys are selling iPods and candy.
And the drunk hobo is not a zombie.

In the real world:
Everything is meaningless.
We live - we die.
All underneath the sun.

But only

Underneath the sun.

Only

In this world.
