Arkham Asylum

Every busy city needs a vigilante,
Every seething cauldron needs a ladle,
Evil lurks in the dark,
It attacks like a shark.

Gotham city needs a defense,
Batman needs a place,
To house the assailant,
To take them away from the city’s terrain

Arkham asylum has held the fort,
Like a rope held taut,
The villain, it has held bound,
As many as could be found.

Some scoundrels escaped,
They were trailed and taped,
The road led to the asylum,
Securely reinforced to the maximum.
