yi-ching lin photography 
part of a masked hero’s
job always remains
hidden and unthought-
of – the part where he
is setting the alarm
before bed, she is
putting on
SPF 30 to walk
the dog, he is ironing
his insignia, and –
just between you
and me – they are
comic strip happy
.

thank you, Mike, for visiting and commenting! that’s so true (smile).
