An Ode to the Flash

Emblem of lightning bore on the chest  A part of the speed force Running to save the world,  accelerating past sound and light for the sake of humanity A blur of constant motion driving himself faster and faster to save the would right on time A clutch player in any crises Not just a hero, a Super-hero Bouncing through the time stream Facing any villain who holds to evils creed whether it be a purse snatcher, Captain Cold, or the dreaded Anti-Moniter He knows that if he goes fast enough good will prevail A seemingly insignificant superpower, to run fast; yet, decorated in the highest tradition and honor all those flashing forward for human kind stand tall in the shadows of respect and esteem What a way to spend a life Running
