Genre No. 1: The Sonnet

The Coming of the Ubermensch

Throughout the fields they see the halls of hell,
Where Satan’s wrath and rule brings much despair,
Where life does end and where the demons dwell,
The fields of hell where souls roam everywhere.
He was supposed to come and save these men,
The Alpha and Omega is a lie,
For he is dead and men are doomed again,
To wander round as ghosts which they decry.
Behold him, Nietzsche come to save the day,
An ideal prophet for all eyes to wend,
The Ubermensch to save us from dismay,
He brings a new beginning and an end:
A bird, a plane, a man from outer space
The Man of Steel has come to save our race
