Captain Ordinary

“It’s a bird!” said a little boy.

“It’s a plane!” said a little girl.

A man on the street looked up. A perfectly ordinary man, in tights and a cape. It was indeed a plane, trailing white smoke over the city.

“A biplane!” he muttered. “Can it be …”

It was. The summons he had long awaited. Even as he watched, the words began forming: CALLING CAP

He didn’t bother looking for a phone booth. They had all been hauled away years before. While everyone else on the street was watching the plane, he stripped off his tights, his cape …

CALLING CAPTAIN ORDINARY

And before the words were fully formed, there was a neatly-folded costume on the curb. If anyone looked down and saw a man in slacks and a sport coat standing in line at a nearby Starbucks, they thought nothing of it.

Nothing out of the ordinary in midtown New York.
