I need to write a poem based upon this poom:
http://www.angelfire.com/ca/iloveDave/lashjh.html
The author of the poem gives spiderman a speach impediment to show that he is not perfect.
Basically, the message of the poem is that nobody is perfect, not even superheros. Now I need to write a poem pased upon that idea.
All I need are some creative ideas. I can write the poem by myself, just some ideas are all I ask for.
Now, I need some answers within the next couple of hours, I need to go to bed really soon. So please please please answer, don't be shy, I'll take any suggestions. Thank you so much if you help!!!

Try a parody. Give a different hero or famous character with few flaws (Zeus, unicorns, Pollyanna, Tiny Tim) an impediment or disability (phobia, bad habit, physical handicap). Play with it!
Poems are not supposed to be perfect on the first draft.

What kind of a teacher assigns this kind of poem, when kids today are only literate in text-message lingo and think the spelling in the poem is the way it should be??!
But I digress.....
1) No, the message is not "nobody's perfect" (arghhh, such a cliche), read beyond the fact that the hero has a speech impediment and actually read the verses.
2) i.e. he says he longs for more exciting missions, instead of ones that serve the petty needs of everyday "high-class" slobs.
3) i.e. he wishes he could burn his suit (TAKE A NEW ROLE) but it's impossible; he's stuck in his role for life.
Actually use your brain....it's easy.
Why not write a poem about a way in which spiderman manages to overcome his role as "superhero assigned to boring, pointless missions, who, on top of this, has an embarrassing speech impediment" and finds his own fulfillment/happiness?
Instead of writing just another poem that finds the negative aspects of someone who appears to have "the perfect life", why not try to "help" spiderman by writing a poem about his future growth?
Could be fun...good luck! Oh, and please, I beg of you, use your spellcheck AND a real-life dictionary.

Of all things created
Perfection's overrated.
Think of all the glowing prose,
Yet has there been a perfect rose?
With all the super hero gifts,
This strong man has a lisp,
This is not a problem to hedge
His perfection is clinging to a ledge.
So he cannot Shakespear herald,
Who cares when your life's in peril?
If your problem is on the ground,
Spidey can be there in a bound!
Wend through and over Web-Weaver
For this person is a believer.
Though you speech may not be crystal,
As a knitter, your a pistol.
Every person great and average
Has a gift that gives them leverage.
Each of us has the gift that makes us sneak
Into the realm of the unique!
What I am getting at here, is that we all have special talent that makes us a "superhero" and we all have problems to over come. Use what you want of this, I just like to make up poems.

How about a poem about a teacher? You could write about how she loves snow days more than the kids, how she is afraid on the first day of every year, how she can't wait till summer, how she doesn't want to get out of bed in the morning when she stays up late watching South Park.....
