A shadow lurks in the dark,
Stalking the lords of felony,
As he takes on the dark underbelly,
Unleashing suffering and agony.

Plunged into eternal turmoil,
He grapples with demons of yore,
Robbed of a family when young,
Yet bestowed with riches galore.

Found solace with the bats,
Conquering the fears within,
Together with beacon of hope,
Did the fight for justice begin,

Protecting victims of tyranny,
He upholds the Wayne legacy,
A nemesis of injustice,
He’s the devil’s dark fantasy.

Feared by the law and the lawless,
He hides in plain sight,
Caped Crusader of Gotham,
An unsung hero…a Dark Knight!
