Revenge

Tony36

She runs at him across the field

Samurai sword ready to strike

From the other end of the feild

He runs at her

Samurai sword ready to strike

 

She is a hired killer

She has found her prey

However 

It is not a normal job

This is revenge 

 

20 years ago

When she was But a little girl 

He slaughtered her whole family

She vowed revenge 

 

She trained

She practiced 

She trained some more

 

Honing her skills as a killer for hire

But never forgetting her promise 

Never forgetting him

 

Now 20 years later

The time has  ome

They meet in the middle of the field

Swords clash

A battle rages

Blood flies

 

Soon However

She strikes the death blow

He falls dead

Revenge has been granted

    The lengths we go to to exact vengeance can be unfathomable at times.

          Wow! A very different feel from you Tony...and I LOVE IT! Seriously, this reminded me of O-Ren Ishii in Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill. Just a wonderfully penned and brilliantly executed poetic narrative, my friend! Happy Holidays to you and family, Tony!

          Revenge is a dish best served cold in this poem. Simmering for 20 years it had to be perfect. Great write!

                War starts in such a way if people cannot move on to a better place in their lives Tony.
