dental visit
followed by shopping trip
bags of doughnuts

I don't play fair because I am old;
and though I don't tire as easily on the mats
I do get dizzy sometimes
and I'd rather finish fights quickly
than prolong a bout in the search
of the perfect flying armbar.
If it's any consolation
I'll teach you everything I know
all the wrist locks and heel hooks
how to choke someone to sleep
and how to make them cry out in pain
because they tried to hurt you
or someone you were protecting;
and if you're determined to fight
I'll show you how to stay lawful
while sowing chaos on the street.
