I had always fought evil
My reasons are simple
But I soon began to question evil
What was good and what was evil
It is not that clear cut
I was on vacation
When I met the daughter of a terrorist
Her mother had been in jail for over thirty years
Not for what she had done
She had served her sentence
Bur because of what she knew
This frustrated the daughter
And she had tried to get her released
But ran squarely into a brick wall
The daughter then decided to take things into her own hands
And began hurting those who were hurting her mother
The events were low grade at first but she had plans
Senior politicians and members of the establishment
That is when I discovered her
She knew who I was and my reputation
And was stunned when I said I agreed with her
Et tu Batman
Et tu Batman
I thought you were one of the good guys
I am one of the good guys
I then began financing her operations
Was I able to live with myself
Yes
As I knew that she was fighting evil and corruption
You might think that this is false
But let me assure you it is true
In a month or so a corrupt judge will be hurt
And then another and another and then silence
The silence is the important thing
It is not the events but the waiting
That is the true punishment
In time when she is spent
She will spend time with me
We are already a team of one
I suppose that is hard to understand
But if you think about it
The idea is transparent
Joe Note
This was sent to me by a friend whilst I was abroad
It appears to have been written by his son
I assure you that I had nothing to do with it
As I have not even written a Batman poem
It might be fanciful but does retain ones interest
As especially today when many of the good guys
Are being seen as the bad guys
By people with corrupt agendas
I have published it just to provoke thought
As although I am not a violent man
I do see the need for order and if this means violence
Then that is a price well paid
Things must always be run
From a position of strength
Otherwise they will fail
