where are my heroes now
i don’t understand
i used to need them so
now they are only
like polaroid prints
sterile
with no feelings
transparent
in their motives
playing with ideas
all their lives
to resolve their
personalities
has no interest
now i have grown up
they have vanished
i cried for one whole day
when i asked,
where are my heroes now?
