Deep in Thought

I stare at my poster
of Batman and Robin,
wondering how they always
seem to save Gotham City
from whatever peril
comes their way.
The “cerulean” walls
in my bedroom are closing
in on me.  Dad enters,
gives me a hug, and tells me
I should think about doing
something nice for Missy.
I keep thinking:  what if
something were to happen
to my dad?
