The Pen Is Mightier Than the Sword

"The pen is mightier than the sword" Said the towns' poet, a bit of a bard, To the Chief of the military, Challenged him to a duel, gave his shiny card The card had his house no. and plot The challenge? A battle to death To see who will rot, The Chief sharpened swords, the poet simply read They got in battle, in the poet's house's battle ground, The chief raised his mighty big knife, The people sat waiting for this round, This was a battle to death and life! The poet then threw some ink on the chiefs eyes, Blinded him, stabbed him with the pen, took all his 9 wives
