Throughtout the years he published many more books.

The poets poems are hilaroius and some are make-believe

I'm Steve the Superhero And you simply won't believe the superpowers I possess by merely being Steve.

My smile can crack a mirror And my breath can make you faint. And when I take my socks off It’s been known to peel the paint.

The power in my underarms can make a grown man cry. A single burp can make you want To crawl away and die.

The bad guys know it's hopeless, so they all get up and leave whenever they get wind of me-- the superhero Steve.
