The Lonesome Knight!

The knight was young for the straggle moose

Not a day over thirty five

So I wonder why it let him loose

Why it let the brave knight survive?

Some speculate that the moon did help

The rather dashing young man

By raising the tides and sending in kelp

To distract the moose while he ran

Others say the moose took pity

Of the knight, all bound up tight

For it did snatch him from the city

And let me tell you it was quite a sight

There the knight was playing poker

With his horse along as well

He was out of chips, bet his super soaker

With a kidney he could sell.

The cards were flopped the hands were queried

His opponent raised some Sauce

Reluctantly the knight quite wearied

Offered up his horse

But his horse said “Neigh!” and cantered off

Leaving the knight alone

The cards were shown, he was at a loss

He admitted he got pwned.

His opponent then, unsheaving a knife

Demanded the other kidney

The knight objected “I need that for life!

Of your presence you shall rid me!”

A brawl was started, the knight but one

The others had a plenty

With their numbers they did overcome

One knight is no match for twenty

Broken and maimed the knight hobbled out

Into the bustling city

He hit a cart, stepped on a lout

The resulting case was not pretty

Alas the knight was overcome

By the lout and his friends they

Did pummel the knight who was but one

The thugs were a plenty

The knight was setting a course for home

when he did trip over his son

He helped him up, “Why you’re all alone”

Then he saw what the son had done

His arms were slashed, his liver missing

The son did rise “from the east

They came with swords and snakes a hissing

They said they needed a feast”

The knight rose up while his son sat down

The situation was bad he deduced

The last thing he saw before blacking out with a frown

Were the horns of a lone straggle moose.

Thus ends the tale of the Lonesome Knight

Even though there are some loose ends

The bad guys were captured their wounds were healed

And Everybody made amends

Except for the straggle moose

It  is of course on the loose

Hunting down maidens
Playing some raiden

Which is quite a feat if you have hoofs.
