Batman: Arkham Asylum (haikus)

   Posted by: Allan    in Games, Verse -- Love

You and all your friends
unconscious after a brawl
Boo ya! I’m Batman

Warden’s DNA
leaves a trail I must follow
Eww, Gross! I’m Batman

Those Goth Girls are hot!
Check out Harley and Ivy –
Aww yea, I’m Batman

Nigma hiding stuff
in places I can’t reach yet.
Come on! I’m Batman!!

Enough with the vents
Why can’t I blow up a door,
damn it? I’m Batman!

Hallucinogen
Reliving the tragic past.
Mom, dad, I’m Batman

Psychotherapy
Cannot contain my madness –
The Clown Prince of Crime

From the summer of 2001. Just remember that many Bothans died to bring you this information.

These random thoughts conspire

   Posted by: Allan    in Verse -- Fear

These random thoughts conspire
too fleeting, too drawn to shiny objects
like a child who wants to talk –
this one’s about fire, now ghosts, now souls,
now human nature, how aging Christians
will be fed to lions under Obamacare,
now ghosts again — these memories I plead with,
thoughts that zoom past like the metrolink
loud, powerful thoughts with flashing red lights
and bells in the background as I wait patiently –
foot on the brake, mildly entertained, mildly frightened.
Then just when I thought I’ve caught a metaphor,
it pauses, spins mockingly and fades into reality

Another look back…

This one’s apparently from a Vegas trip in June 1992…
