Man of bats

Something a little bit silly

In Gotham 

on a cloudy night

a little boy

cries to the sky:

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

Where's the justice in this life?

We have so few

My mom is ill

My daddy left

I miss him still

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

Where's the justice in this life?

We got mugged

My mom beat up

I screamed and screamed:

"She's had enough!"

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

Bring back justice to our life!

In Gotham

on a cloudy night

the man of bats

he hears him cry:

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

Where's the justice in this life?

He finds the thiefs

rounds 'em up nice

He beats them up:

"Apologize!"

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

"We promise we will change our life!"

So they return

what they stole

they're just glad

their head's still whole

Oh man of bats

Oh man of night

Once more brought justice to this life!

I think it just goes to show that all bats can't be bad
Who knows, possibly, no bats are bad
could a poll work here?

I don't think it's silly at all. :)
I think it's a well written poem in the voice of a young person reaching for help and reason.
Good write!
