Superman

A tribute to Bruce Lee

Superman

Red and blue are black,
in cotton, silk and canvas.
White is yellow,
at five-foot-seven.

Twisted genius are
square ways in round times;
a fallacy called race;
the man in his silver-backed glass.

Flight and inviolate skin are myth.
Evil is real,
indestructible but conquerable
by one man, who is real—
was real,
once upon a time
in China.
