A Geeky Poem

Darkness is as clear as daylight

My parents murdered in front of me
My life crashed to the ground
The murderer tried to end my life
But hurried away by the sirens sound

I became a recluse and started to train
Martial art expert numb to most pain
I’m a rich vigilante a shadow to you
Your worst enemy when my signal in view

Blackened with armour gadgets and cape
Gothem the city I’m beginning to shape
Scarecrows fear me, penguins submerge
Cats lose all nine lives and ivy does purge

Two faced people disagree with my benevolence
Riddled by my actions caused by my bane
Capturing the villains is a joke they are clearly insane

How this city has so many enemies
Freezes my brain
a league of justice created
And needs to remain
Men who are super
woman who are a wonder
They need to be quick as a flash
before Gothem goes under 
Daredevils
risk takers
battlers of crime
I will save this city it is my time

But why so serious? I hear you ask
Because this city needs someone
And I have a mask

only then will we have peace
A robin in view
I am Batman Who are you?

Great poem! I don't really do comics all that much- or action movies for that matter. This was fun even without the background knowledge. The rhymes didn't have any problems and the meter worked. Great write!

I love batman. I'm a super massive geeky fan. I love the poem, especially how you added in the League. I have to say that by 'Martial art expert' I knew what the poem was about. Great write.

Ah, Batman! Definitely my favorite comic book vigilante as well. I really enjoyed reading this. I love how you included references to each of his enemies and to movies old and new. Fabulous work!
