Kapoot

I tried to start a fight last night, 

I couldn't agree that it was right-

I pulled over,
said to a man in his funky hat that he needed fight for that!

He looked back,
like he expected some animal attack,

gruel in the face,
eye's widening but staying tight,

I wasn't even close to ready to show my might-

he said with confidence,
'than now we shall do this to our fullest!'

He ran at me, 
full force, tried to tackle me but missed,

I completely jumped over him grabbed his hat turned ran back for the car but also missed,

he got up,

furry burried his gaze,

hit me with something louder than all of my praise.

I fell backward, 
several meters,

I screamed! "It is beyond me, you think that upstairs is your business sir! Who really wore that hat is the man! Not you!"

'Yeah, and you?'

He was up so fast it made me shed a tear, 
but I wasn't flustered anymore so I denied him his cheer-

"They were champions!
Not relics or fear-
now I will take from you what you stated here."

He didn't laugh like I thought so,

just stared and knotted his fists and approached slower than I could bear-

his first punch I ducked,
came around and hit him several time's,

he dropped to one knee to shine like I was worthy,

then I opened his face with my foot, 
he fell over all the way kapoot.
