To celebrate poetry month and superhero month (which I thought was a thing but maybe it isn't) I'm writing three MORE Superhero poetry anthologies, and this one is about the Incredibles!

Helen

I know I did it well

That whole hero thing

I know I ran the world

I know I was adored

But what I don't know

Is why it can't just be

The days of my past

I have this new thing

And I don't always do it well

I don't always succeed

I no longer run the world

I run a household

And I wouldn't change it

I would not go back

If it meant choosing

The world over my family

Bob

I'm not choosing

I wouldn't choose

I wouldn't pick

This over them

I couldn't choose

I miss it

Saving the world

Saving the day

It hurts sometimes

Being strong enough

Yet held back

But it's fine

I won't choose

I'd do anything

To save them

My new world

Dash

I'm going to be special

Not mom and teachers "special"

Where everyone else is as well

That's not what special means

Special sets you apart

I was born with it

Others make it for themselves

Either way, I'm going to do something

I'm going to break out

Away from everyone gets a gold star

People will know whatever name I go by

I'm going to be special

Violet

I don't want to be special

I don't want to be seen

That's why I hide

My origin made me a freak

Violet Parr the invisible girl

But I can't stay that way forever

So I do other things

Hid in my hair

Hid in my clothes

Hide in a sea of people

Students who don't know

I am not like them

I like that they believe

That I am the same.

Jack-Jack

I am very confused

But very happy

This is new

This is fun

I do things

I am big!

I am bright!

Hear me roar!

I am confused
