The Joker and the Thief

“There’ve been some problems through the land,
Somebody needs to take a stand.”
The Joker reads the headlines and laughs,
The Thief splits the gold in two halves.

Partners for life they soundly agreed,
They could get anything they need.
The Joker the brains, the brawn the Thief.
They always leave their victims in disbelief.

In the night, they skulked alone.
Even their shadows, were never shown.
It seems impossible, but maybe it’s true.
If you’re not careful, they might just get you.

There’s no obstacle that’s too great for them,
They’ll do anything for that precious gem.
They have the means, they know the paths;
Not a single thing is safe from their grasp.

The lesson to be learned is very clear,
The answer’s never, yet always near.
If you find it, you’ll be in disbelief,
But the answer is kept by the Joker and the Thief.
