An immortal charges forward
and the man dodges,
shooting a single arrow
and aiming directly for his opponent's backside.
The adversary
lets out a final yell,
as his arrow meets it's mark
in the dark interior of the castle
and I shake my head
and laugh aloud
because it must be rather humiliating
to die from taking an arrow to the butt
when every guard around
has taken an arrow to the knee
but never ever met such an unceremonious fate.
Here lies
a master vampire
who is not even fortunate enough
to be given a name,
who will probably be looted
after he was slain,
who won't have a proper burial
or even cremation,
and the only significant detail
that anyone knows about him
is his woeful demise.
Oh, how I pity his poor soul
but at least I wear his garments now.
