Anyways, rules are as follows, write a poem in any style using the five words that I give you. Write it in one sitting or in under an hour (only to quash your inner editor, rules are loose there). Add it here, OR link in a comment so we can enjoy each other's poems. The words can be in any plurality or tense. Today’s words are: power, super, bad, good, collateral
Below is mine:
---- ---- ------ ---- ---- ----
Knowledge is power
The teacher said
During each morning hour
Thoughts soaking into each little head.
I could tell it sunk in
As we went out to play
For they ran off with a grin
In a most superhero way
Imaginary capes flying proud
Bad guys to catch
Cheers from invisible crowds
No collateral damage in this match.

No need to be a super hero,
Collateral are strength and pride,
What's good, what's bad - Look in the mirror,
You have this power to decide

oh wow! Very nice and welcome back. I rather like this one, more than the one I wrote.
