Poem
     Dark rain dripping
     hands and feet poised ready
     as danger appears

Two Kung Fu masters ~ trouble eye to eye
There would be no peace ~ the tension was high
Each one knew that their Kung Fu was the best
This deadly duel was the ultimate test

     The earth gravitates
     heat waves forming within a soul

Those watching could not see what each one thought
In this Art of War ~ composure was sought
Each knew that one move could bring their demise
Lightning strikes ~ deadly blows ~ such cloudy skies

     Butterfly feet lifts
     shaping sharpening soul daggers
     whizz forward

Stalking in a circle ~ slow did they move
Gazes locked ~ hands cocked ~ this battle would prove
Who's fist style was the best ~ skills they did not lack
One said "Enough!" ~ he then launched his attack

     Fist on flesh
     electric luster crackles a visceral snarl

His hands and feet became punches and kicks
Vicious techniques in the rain did he pick
The attacked moved with grace out of harm's way
Within striking distance ~ response without delay

     Phantom lightning strikes
     circle within a circle
     souls become blades

Raining hammers ~ the attacker felt the blows
So many angles ~ some struck high ~ some low
The one attacked moved in circles ~ here and there
The attacker was lost ~ his target seemed everywhere

     What appeared aimless
     was actually a glazed cover

Witnessed by all ~ the one attacked lost "her" hat
Long hair cascaded to "her" shoulders ~ all were staring at
A Kung Fu "Masteress" ~ they were taken by surprise
The attacker defeated by "she" ~ in a man's disguise

     Lips curling one side
     a demure little maiden
     fixing eyes on him

A lesson was learned ~ never under estimate
It affects the outcome ~ it affects one's fate
