BILL AND THE BROADSWORD


Bill dodged the broadsword,
his big feet sparking
in the dark.

When it got light,
the harbourman said:
Never seen anything like it in Quebec...

I asked him for his fishing license,
and he replied
What the heck..?.

He thrust his broadsword at me
as if to cause me pain,
so I back-heeled it and thumped him again...

He went in the briny
and made such a splash...
So I went whom immediately, for some potato hash...

And the moral of this story,
as if not plain enough:
Never ever get lippy,
if you're nowhere near that tough...
