BERNIE, BATMAN AND JOKER
by Bill Kochman
03-19-2021
Bernie, Batman and Joker,
Sitting in a cell,
Bernie listens closely,
While Batman gives Joker hell.
Bernie is all wrapped up,
For bats can carry fleas,
But Joker is so crazy,
He sits there quite at ease.
Then Bernie gets an itch,
Somewhere around his knee,
But mittens just won't let him,
Get rid of that darn flea.
Joker then laughs loudly,
At Bernie's itchy plight,
But across the table it's quiet,
No sound from the Dark Knight.
A bat, a flea, a Joker,
A strange crowd indeed,
Bernie wants to scratch,
But his mittens do impede.
Poor Bernie then decides,
For help he must ask,
But no one understands him,
He's garbled through his mask.
The moral of this story:
Don't wear mittens or a mask,
For if you get a flea,
Removal will be a difficult task.
