Shura

obligatory small talk is made
before business can be done
I lower my head and arise
to meet the eyes of one
who wouldn't pay respect
the insult is direct

codes and customs followed rigidly
save for one loud mouth employee
a little too quick with your tongue
did you forget that you speak
a language that is hardly second to me?

dishonored and dismayed
but I can mend my broken pride
by severely shortening your life
steel to steel - an antiquated notion
covert execution before forgiveness
could ever be begged for
shura...
