funny names that I didn’t know were funny
one color guns and swords and shurikens
loosely held by tight clenched hands
and tight clenched grins
shaped by an immortal life of action
villains were stopped and lines were crossed
bad guys became good guys and,
yes, good guys became bad guys
my three favorites would get their happy ending
and then lose it when I would try again
they were the very first characters
in the first stories that I ever made up
