No Capes

 Might someone become a hero
not because of something they did
but for the last thing that was done
to them
that begins a long overdue
trail to justice

A verdict of the value
that was always there
and always ignored

Ignored no longer

Now
they're the first among many

the dead
who shouldn't be

Uninteded sacrifice

Unintentional martyrdom

The heroes
with no capes
