Hong Kong Batman

Rating: 5.0


in one corner of ring
stood deng xiaoping; *

dwarf of man,
giant's fist for hand.

in other corner of show
general patten# all aglow,

fresh from victory
for the tory party-


twixt two twas tossed
black figure in mask

rubber stretch tights below-
batman stole the show!


i love
kids cartoons


* Deng Xiaoping, paramount leader of China (1978-1997)
# Chris Patten, last Governor of Hong Kong (1992-1997)
