Modern Overmen

We don't clear tall buildings
in a single bound anymore.
The people we once admired
have surrended to mediocrity.
And the tall buildings wonder:
'Will we ever be hurdled again? '

    ...or, perhaps, with an extra rib - yes, that's more likely. :)

    It's easy to be critical of anything less than "ideal". Of course, nothing says "criticism" like comedy.

    And no, she's still a penny shy of contributing her $.02
