Silent Dark Knight, oh Holy Dark Knight
All is calm, and filled with such fright
Why so quiet? What happened when young?
Has the Catwoman got your bat tongue?
Batman, oh Batman, how you complete me
Sneer and grimace but you'll never beat me
No winners at all, not me and not you
We can't have your cape and both eat it too
Gotham is ours, our playground of fools
Its borish people are all but my tools
The city is ripe for my class of crime
all ready to squeal, at my fine punchline
So brooding, so black, stark from my white
A smile on your dial would be my delight
Two sides of a penny, chaos and control,
No smile lines showing, frowns take their toll
Dance with me Batman, make my dark night
show me that passion, keep up that fight
Hit me until we're far past delirious
I'll smack lips asking, Oh... why so serious?

Oh wow! I love the play on words, the puns and the joking serious attitude going on throughout the whole thing. Totally amazing, I can't find a single thing to critique. Your flow was absolutely perfect, I couldn't have done better if I tried! Good luck in that contest <33

Thanks heaps for putting this contest on. I was about to start one myself but am glad someone else did so I was able to write my poem that I think must've been about 20 years in the making. Go the freaking Dark Knight and all those who proudly live in the shadow of the bat.

Thanks Rhonda, I do a scan every now and then to see if there's any movie contest going. I'm a huge Batman/Joker fan and even got my first Batman tattoo recently! I enjoyed gushing some Dark Knight Write tonight. Hope all's well for you. Cya round.
