I.
I will look up to
superheros if I want to.
II.
I will call myself
Captain America
if that's what makes me comfortable
in my own skin.
III.
You are not going to stop me
because you don't know what it's like
to drown
in clean air
upon seeing your reflection.
IV.
I will call myself
Captain America
and I will thrive.
