Carrion Crown

[John]

Love the title as a summation of that story.

One last shot seems axiomatic. There can only be one last shot. What about there's time for one more shot ?

Cheers

A dentist prowls savannah sand,
he needs to find his plaque;
like bloody gums from shaky hands,
with guns this time, attacks.
 
A lion falls, his jaw destroyed,
there’s time for one last shot;
a camera’s flash preserves his joy,
the lion’s carcass rots.
