I will not go lightly into the dark
my time is up and they have sent Clark
pale and with a grisly jade grin,
I held him fast just below his chin
the clown had crossed the line
my gloved hands made sure this was his last crime
Gotham, grim, wet, dark and foreboding
I am here at the president's bidding
Bruce, why have you let it come to this
squinting my eyes pierce the mist
hovering high above, looking for a myth
this time we are playing for keeps
fingers fly over keys, monitors glare
I am delphi, I am the Oracle
my family of the Knight are in my care
but tonight to my town have come the miracles
the woman of wonder,the boy scout from yonder
the emerald ring wielder,the scarlet speedster,
they have all come for the dark knight
legends all, heroes all but fail they shall this night
his charge i spot, a flutter of yellow
I soar downwards to the child, trying to be mellow
take me to bruce I order not ask
he grits his teeth ready to take me to task
he floats down out of the sky like a god of old
he comes asking for my mentor, the one who took me into is fold
I turn and run and flip and tumble, showing him why I am acrobat
he is not to be shaken so easy, not till he has got the bat
plumes flare, windows shatter, off go his diversion
the miracles turn and stare, quickly they converse in the rain
as one they turn to this new blazing mission
the league is gone, now only the boy scout remains
now I wait for the end game, it will be tonight
he may be faster than a speeding bullet
but in my pocket resides a piece of his planet
a green glowing rock from krpyton's nite
