Elsa Bear - Stepping Into Gotham

in the murky depths
of a retiring old city,
lurks something sinister.
something to be feared.
darkly directed
by a haunting genius,
he creates dark alleys,
brings to life a neomonolithic
nineteen twenties gothic chic city
with a hint of sex and black magic.
an inner self revealed
to an unsuspecting public
a cave full of secrets,
a hero of comic book proportions
itching to save the day.
gothic highlights layer
a snowy graveyard,
visited by a creature who was
propelled upwards from the sewer
to face a world never known.
