So I watch Becket last night and had this thought when I woke up. It's iambic pentameter, again, with the first and sixth syllable getting extra umph. It should be five-hundred syllables of dialog but I've not counted. I thought it was funny and I hope you enjoy.


BLOOD ANGEL

Glory days to breathe life in a battle

Grand as that thou and I have just partook.

Xenos I see laid dead by the thousands.

Armageddon true shall be delivered

While we most fierce and noble defenders

Stand guard. The angel crimson and the sly

Wolf. On the coming dawn I expect to

Slay a thousand more orks. And perhaps a

Million by campaign's victorious end!

What sayest thou Russ-son, a million orks?

GREY HUNTER

Did ya just call me sly? 'Cause I see a

Thousand dead greens that I slew with this 'ere

Bolt gun. Ya cann't count the beasts I done

Killed as your own. Ya steal from me pride. I'll

Not suffer sly hair quaffing thieves none.

BLOOD ANGEL

Pardon brother, I see now thou art

Barking mad to judge thy self the killer

More fearful! Yet most unfair it was to

Declare myself the better as I did

Not your mighty valor witness through

Tides of xenos I slew. Perhaps thou wert

Deprived from view by that thicket that doth

Grow from beneath thine nose. It fits well, thy

Beard doest enhance your portrayal of a

Mongrel in thy well rounded countenance.

GREY HUNTER

Tread lightly now, red winged fool, or ya

Might take off with a crack up that clean soft

Chin! Don't mock the sign wolf! It is just as

Important as your blood tear. And I think

Mongrels don't were wolf skin. I seen some wear

Red and black though, and savage through and through.

So close your sodding mouth! A'fore we have

Trouble. And quite your talkin' like a damn

Blue blood. Ya can't trick me. I seen your eyes,

Rabid you were in killing them xenos.

BLOOD ANGEL

Rabid!? To be an animal!? Thou doth

Accuse me when the offense is to be

Monstrous!? What then howls in the jungles,

east of us? It is no son of the lord

Sanguinius! That fact is truly sure!

GREY HUNTER

Stay your tongue and your hand. I'll not come to

Blows with ya o'er this barking. I'd hate to

Scar your delicate cheeks. Let us be as

Kin. First light I can teach ya how to kill

Proper orks, not just wee ones me brother.

BLOOD ANGEL

Ha! I am quite sure thou mistaken art.

Moring shall bring a second chance for thy

Witnessing of my tenacity! It

May also afford opportunity

Sorely needed for thee to better groom.


Smile at someone today.
