#391: Vampires. OWNED.

Have you ever felt,
The feeling of getting hit in the tummy?
Where air is knocked out of your lungs,
And you start feeling all nauseous and dizzy.

That's exactly how our vampire tormentors felt,
When Super Ninja hit them in their stomachs.
All four of them at once,
Of one thing we were certain- Super Nina had guts.

One of the vampires growled,
Spun around and threw a punch at our hero.
But Super Ninja dodged them,
With all his style and gusto.

One by one the vampires tried to hit him,
But all attempts were in vain.
Super Ninja was just a blur,
Amidst vampire punches that fell like rain.

This went on for about a week,
But Super Ninja persevered,
With the future of our village at stake.
And for his safety we feared.

And then- as sudden as it were,
Super Ninja leaped into the air,
Like a soaring eagle into the sky,
And down at his prey he stared.

When our savior finally landed,
Everyone held their breath.
It felt as if the world stood still,
And it was as silent as death.

Super Ninja broke the silence,
With a thundering shout.
"BOOMSHAKALAKA!"
And his gleaming katanas flew out.

I don't wanna brag,
Neither would I like to lie.
So I'll just tell it as it is,
This was what I saw with my very own eyes.

But then again I'd rather not,
Due to some blog readers who are underage.
But I think it's safe to say,
That the vampires experienced Super Ninja's rage.

Not to be corny or anything,
But our village was restored.
The vampires were vanquished,
And things were fine and dandy- just like before.

As for Super Ninja,
He lives to this day,
A living legend,
Ridding the earth of evil dismay.

As much as you vampire fans,
May despise this composition,
Then let's see vampires beat ninjas,
In the form of a super cool poem.

#390: Salvation At Hand?

The last time we checked,
Vampires were in control.
Pillaging and looting towns,
When this will end we'll never know.

But whoa- what is this,
That emerges from the horizon,
Who is this person,
Could it be our salvation?

Draped in black,
From head to toe,
Armed with katanas,
This guy was cooler than you'd know.

"Super Ninja."
He said his name was.
"I'm here to fight for you.
To fight for what you've lost."

Then he got into a stance,
Like a tiger to its prey,
Ever ready to strike,
To end its light of day.

"Err Super Ninja?
Why are you squatting like that?
There is no one around us,
The vampires are nowhere near us yet."

"Right." He said,
And shrugged off his stance.
He acted as if nothing happened,
To us he didn't even give a glance.

And he walked towards the hill,
Where we told him the vampires were,
Without an ounce of fear in his body,
To his destiny he stepped closer.

Would this be it?
Is salvation at hand?
Will the rule of the vampires,
Finally be ended?

To be continued...

#389: The Dark Before The Dawn

I know I've heard the phrase
The night is darkest before dawn.
But now I'm starting to wonder
If the guy who said that was wrong.

Our town has been pillaged,
Our homes set on fire.
Will this persecution ever end,
Persecution from rampaging vampires.

Yeah, I know,
Twilight made them so lovable.
But you never thought of
The destruction of which they are capable.

Will this night ever end?
Will we taste freedom ever again?
Is this the end of our living?
Will someone take away the pain?

What if, in all our hopes,
A savior steps forth for us,
To slay the deathly vampires,
And free us from this curse.

But for now it's reality.
For salvation we will wait.
A hope that lingers on,
A hope that will save us from this fate.

To be continued...
