Batman, my son
Don’t fight the dark night
Go to sleep now
Everything is alright
There will always be jokers
And riddles to solve
Don’t lose your sleep
In the morning resolve
Some lovers are poison
Like ivy on the wall
Freezing your heart
Some two-faced and tall
Yet others will purr
Like a catwoman sings
Some cute as the penguins
On a warm day in spring
Dress yourself fine
Unlike a scarecrow
Remove the mad hatter
It’s not your bane you know
“It’s not who you are underneath
It’s what you do that defines you”
You know the truth

ReplyDeleteGreat poem and trip back.....I can safely say that your poem had more depth to it than the props ever did in the 60's TV shows....!
