Superman
So many looked to you for inspiration, Unlikely hero for the wheelchair nation. Proudly you fought and proudly you believed, Everyone loved you Christopher Reeve. Readily it seemed you accepted your fate, Man you are super..man you are great! All the nation mourns a hero has passed, No more bound, you fly again at last!

You Lost Your Last Gamble and Me I will never think twice nor will I roll the dice When it comes to my life I will take my Grannio's adviceYou play the hand you're dealt when it comes to who will be your Dad - But if you bluff about a card's face value for too many years you forget you had - No Aces or King of Hearts in your original deck - But rather a worthless Joker-So Wild and Mad..
