Steve the Superhero

I'm Steve the Superhero and you simply won't believe the superpowers I possess by merely being Steve. My smile can crack a mirror and my breath can make you faint. And when I take my socks off it's been known to peel the paint. The power in my underarms can make a grown man cry. A single burp can make you want to crawl away and die. The bad guys know it's hopeless, so they all get up and leave whenever they get wind of me-- the superhero Steve.

--Kenn Nesbitt
