    Fair enough. Funny how people on opposite sides become more reluctant - I am not so sure anymore that Kessler will win.

    Decebal is a far better poet than I, and a better analyst, so I do think he is somewhat offended:rofl

    Rumble in the Jungle

    The Old Wolf, long of tooth, red in claw,
    Master of Grounds, inspiring terror and awe
    Amongst creatures great, lowly and famed,
    His will to win, recently rather more tamed
    Prepared to retire, his bones now to rest,
    Never again a strong foe further to test.
    “I've done my time, done my bit, done my all!”,
    He’d say to himself in the hours most small,
    Contented he’d lie in the warm glow of folly
    His mind’s eye was painting as pure peerless glory.
    Till his ears could no longer shut-out the lip:
    “Old Wolf, Calzaghe, you’re beginning to slip!”

    With broken paws, what more can you gain?
    Natural law seeking out to halt your pain.
    What will you do, when predator turns to prey.
    Money counts, but legacy has the final say.
    You'd fought many a battle to show the might.
    Yet trodding quicksand in a land of blight.
    No, Old Wolf lick your paws, accept your fate.
    New beast roam the jungle, you took the bait.
    In the end you might ask, "Could i've done more?"
    "Yes, you could, but never did you bore."
    Old Wolf, your final song in time is written.
    Give the paws a rest, else they will be bitten.

    So did the animals speak, so did they spite him,
    Pushing him over, boarding his patience to the brim.
    No way to hide from their beration, no where to run,
    His lonely life now empty of every little bit of fun,
    No where to run his conscience upon a greener meadow,
    His joyless breast to all past good and proud - a widdow.
    Thus drunk with 'passioned hatred at himself and all,
    One night, the forest and the starlit sky - all heard his yawl,
    As he proclaimed that he would never rest
    Until he proved himself again to be the best,
    The greatest still, despite his age and lengthy service,
    Despite his present ease and confort, wild and tameless.

    Age of time repeating itself again; mind refusing to cave.
    Stalking for laurals - the promise of tomb and grave.
    Untamed as is, keeper of throne, pride guiding his way.
    Ultimate fall for king of the jungle, will soon end the day.
    Harem of believers churns the Old Wolf's final howl.
    Unbeknownst to him, spitting later at his disembowel.
    This is the ways for a king; hailed by many out of fear,
    only to find the gleaming dagger exposed in the rear.
    Claiming he never were the true ruler of woods of green.
    Rather exploiter of the weak, not worthy to be seen.
    When broken body and mind turns to rotten carcass,
    will the righterous reacclaim his stature to the mass.

    And thus, young and virile, the young challenger breathed,
    The air of his kingdom-to-be, and fuming, he seethed,
    Pranced like a master, swaggered and gaited,
    And bulging his chest, in one swoop desecrated,
    The semblance of peace, of authority unchallenged.
    Past grated desires, now bested no more,
    His howls the whole forest shook to the core,
    Echoing his infinite will, for too long eager and famished,
    His desires soon never again to be belittled or vanquished,
    The Young Wolf, in masterful might, unleashed a great roar -
    No more afraid of his youth, nor his strength, nor his power,
    The hour had come for him above all proud now to tower!

    Honorable of you to step in and "save", ButaboutBute, Decebal, but you turned everything into a wall of text:lol:

    Very good rythm though - I personally must be better at that. Good job.

    Okay, do you know him personally? Or is the logic that only 33% of Bute fans are poets?

    Great, but haven't you switched a line Unchallenged rytmes with nothing, Roar rythmes with Core and more - maybe I am just confused.

    Still very great - seems like you ended it.

    "Unchallenged" kind of rhymes with "famished" - let me off on this one, please!:p

    I haven't ended it!:-(

    This is the intro over now! Now it's time to get into the action...!:happy

    I would suggest that next we explore the reaction of the Old Wolf to the young upstart...like...maybe, he doesn't want to face him after all, even though he decided that he would fight to regain his self-respect...or...he decides to trap him by leading him into his own lair...or something...

    and then...we have to do the fight scene!:happy :happy :happy

    And then, there's the ending after that!:happy :happy :happy :happy :happy

    At least another 3 goes from each of us...hopefully someone will step in and help us along, though!

    Of course I will let you off the hook I just asumed you rhymed with vanquished and famished - but what about vanquished and roar then?

    Yes, you are right - some words on the carnage should be offered. Sorry, I jumped the gun.
