wonderful boy adored

wonderful boy adored







The news didn't pay very much attention
to Batman lately - that was OK.
He still drove his silver car









beyond the lake
in mission after mission
once,after midnight, he dropped










by his aunt Rhoda's (
with the tea packets she... so much liked
from the shop in the city - she gave him











a currant scone. It was wonderful, to
eat a big, buttered scone with the
dark reflecting off the windows











in the big yellow wooden kitchen,
late at night, like a kid













at a big table with a big cup
of hot milky tea ; wonderful , and











to stamp out crime.
