Batman

In the dark of night dwells the Dark-Knight-
Detective who patrols the perilous streets
Of Gotham where the greedy and the gracious live.
Years before when but a mere boy
His parents were killed before his very eyes.
He vowed vengeane on the violent murder.
For years, the Dark-Knight trained his body and mind.
At the peak of perfection, Batman was known
Stricking fear in society's outcasts.
The Detective watched over the city as
A tiger gaurding its helpless cubs,
Keeping them safe from evil and harm.
