Note from Joe: Simplicity is memorable because it’s so rare.
They’ve had a hard day
helping clean up the town,
Now they hang from the mantelpiece
upside down.
A glass of warm blood
and then straight up the stairs.
Batman and Robin
are saying their prayers.
* * *
They’ve locked all the doors
and they’ve put out the bat,
Put on their batjamas
(They like doing that)
They’ve filled their batwater-bottles
made their batbeds,
With two springy battresses
for sleepy batheads.
They’re closing red eyes
and they’re counting black sheep.
Batman and Robin
Are falling asleep.
