Superhero Woman

Visit Magpie Tales for poetry and prose using the picture prompt


Action Figures by Edith Vonnegut
Superhero woman
The angels watch over you
in your flip flops,
dangling a vacuum machine,
tripping over your cat
and toys on the stairs.

You manage through your days
Your sanity intact
and your hair wild in exhaustion
as you cast a lingering look
at the flame of promise
tantalizing in a cherub's hand.


- Gerry at Strummed Words
