So What?

Before

So what if,

Bruce wasn't the best?

Was he (1) really so miffed,

He (1) didn't care about the,

Bird new to the nest?

He didn't want to form a rift,

He just wanted the treatment to shift.

Was that too much,

Too soon for the Street Rat,

To ask?

He's sorry.

--Line Break--

Tick, tock

Watch the clock.

One, two, the crowbar likes you.

Three, four, he locked the door.

Five, six, you're in a fix.

Seven, eight, he won't be late.

Nine, ten, no Bat-men.

Zero, there's no hero.

"Sorry."

--Line Break--

After

So what if,

He'd been mourned?

Was Bruce really so stiff...

Nevermind.

He couldn't contain

His scorn and pain.

--Line Break--

A Good Soldier

In the Rain

Dealing with Pain

Too great to Retain

In his Brain.

A scream split the air.

It's only fair.

He wasn't debonair.

A/N: I regret nothing.

(1) The "he" is Dick.
