a blacknight fitted perfectly
over the local skyline like spilt ink
as masks and blindfolds
drove through the light to where
silhouettes can talk
in strictest identity and all the books
can lean to the right where eyes beautiful look
over rectangular glasses
Detective Comics #363, May 1967, Gardner Fox, Carmine Infantino: oh the rhymes we wend and the bends we play
