Gotham and Batman

written by: Arpan Christy

@ArpanChristy

On a busy crossroad when the signal turns red,
by knocking an action figure of the “Batman”
on the window of a car,
a poor kid tries to sell it.

The window of a car when doesn’t open,
he stares at “batman” with a sigh for a moment
and walks towards another car!

While walking towards another car,
he realizes that,
though a whole world is “Gotham” indeed,
the Batman still is
an imaginary character only!...

Doug Stanfield (Hemmingplay)

“Hemmingplay,” is the pen name of Doug Stanfield, who grew up on a family farm in western Ohio, went with his parents for two years in Karachi, Pakistan, in high school and had lived, until recently, in Bellefonte, PA with his late wife, Wilda and their two sons, Ben and John. Doug was a writer, editor and director of internet communications at Penn State for 26 years. He has had a few disreputable occupations, including newspaper reporter and editor, and public relations flak, but is trying to make amends for his sins by writing poetry and fiction. When his sons were safely off making their own mistakes, he turned on the computer one day, stared at the screen, and began to learn the craft anew at age 67. Doug has published three books: "Mermaid Sisters: First Dive", a children's book; "I Came From A Place of Fireflies" and, "Snowflakes & Ashes: Meditations on the Temporary”.
