Revenge At Last
Finally, his day had come.
The little knight would be the one.
He stood before his massive army.
He said ”They will never harm me”
“They will harm no one again.”
“For today victory is ours.” “ WE WILL WIN.”
The leader of the enemy army was “him.”
The one who had stolen his girlfriend.
For years, he had hunted them down.
Hoping just to crush the clowns.
Once “he” had been his best friend.
Till “he” stole his girlfriend.
Now they both will be put down.
Buried deep within the ground.
The horn was blown. The charge began.
They stood strong man to man.
Dust, screams, blood, and bodies fell.
Each man fought like they were in hell.
The little knight was feeling sick.
Suddenly he was vomiting in a bedpan.
Sweating, he tried to steady his hand.
He was very sick with the flu.
Three days now that he knew.
Even while deathly sick.
He still had dreams of ending it.
Will he ever get over losing her.
He just didn’t know for sure.——————R.W. Johnson——(2011)
