Hey Brandon, I'm not a Batman fan as such, and my critique was wildly off beam as a result but, I know enough of the real world to have recognised the title of a Batman film, indeed, I did before I read the poem. Call me thick but even so I didn't relate the beast you describe to Batman. Re-reading knowing what it's about doesn't redeem the poem from all of its criticisms. Take L1 for example - having read Batman comics (many years ago), seen the Adam West tv series and, the series of modern films I can't remember anything about him having claws, fangs or a rumbling stomach! If he's the spawn of this monster/beast he'd have similar features wouldn't he?
The reason I didn't get it was less to do with me not being a huge Batman fan more that whatever clues you provide in the poem, do not hint strongly enough to help me come to the realisation you're aiming for.
