Mr. Villain
Normalcy changes
With the times.
What made someone
A hero,
Can become their
Downfall the next day.
But me,
A mutant?
No,
I’m just
Me.
Human as
Everyone else.
Yet you stare at me
As if I
Came from a
Different planet.
Wait…
Ah, I see
I may have a small
Idea.
Mr.Crazy Villain.
That’s me,
Isn’t it?
Is it off-putting that
I can’t perfectly
Mimic your language?
Or is it that
I speak an
Alien language?
Then be quick,
Decipher my code!
Who knows
What kinds of
Threats I’m making?
Hurry up and
Get rid of
This villain!
I’ll make my
Best effort
To disguise myself
To look more
Human.
Change my ways
To appear
Less strange.
Adapt to
This town’s standard and
Eat nonexotic foods.
Though a small problem,
I can’t really change
My exterior shell
Color or appearance.
Everything else is
In order,
Perhaps you can
Allow this
Small oversight
Pass?
Eh?
Still Mr.Crazy Villain,
After all my efforts?
Here I thought,
Giving up my
Mother tongue and my
Strange, otherworldly
Culture and customs
Would help me reach
Normalcy.
Will everything I do
Forever be in vain?
I am cursed
To forever be a-
Well if that’s the
Case.
Is there a point
In even trying anymore?
Should I paint the town,
With my strange colors?
Who knows, it may
Help the town not be so
Dull.
Mr.Crazy Villain
That’s me!
Should I terrorize
The town with my
Extraterrestrial self?
Come and hurry,
Capture me!
Who knows
What I’m
Capable of?
Haha!
Someone stop me
I’m such a horrible
Villain!
