i have gone digging deeper down

than i had ever thought to reach

to scour the stains that stand me by

that all my merits must impeach

shaking my head afraid alone

hands beaten bloody blistery

breaking again on stubborn stone

they touched the hardest history

what did my blinking eyes behold?

there in the dark the inner lie

i found no gems no precious gold


i found a flame that will not die.


it stamped this big S on my chest

you are unworthy so was i

but we cannot afford to fail this test

are you Kryptonian or a clown?

Come Join Me! Come Dig Deeper Down!
