The King Is Dead
Long live the king as he mounts his royal horse. Long live the king as he travels far and wide, surveying his kingdom from afar. Long live the king as he leaves his bitch in his wake, the red devil in disguise as she lords her power over us all.

Heathens all, you disgust me with your vitriol! Your words do not wound as much as you would like. I seethe at your sight and hiss at your charm. How dare you try and destroy me with your callousness. Lies spill from your bloody lips and the country falls to pieces.

Go on, ride out on your white steed! Travel the country and the world and pretend you love everyone. You love no one but yourself! How you destroyed me when you asked to end it. Severed the bond we shared and left my heart smashed in the dirty, filthy mud.

How dare you. How dare you do that to me!

You know not what I suffer. You gloat and sneer and wound and lie and nothing I do can stop you. Fear not, I shall destroy you one day. I promise. I swear it now, on the love we shared. I will destroy you.

You shall weep, and your heathen heart shall perish at my feet. Your filthy black lying heart. Only when the drink takes me can I yell my fury to the Heavens. I hide it away, let it fuel my debates. I've never felt so alive. You are the reason I live, so I can take you down. I drink to your demise in the darkness, alone and cold and unafraid to scream and howl as into my wounds exposed drip the ice cold precipitation, freezing my very being as it leaves me numb.

You will fall, Kevin. Oh how you will fall from grace. You will be trodden on and despised and history will not be kind. They will run to us like scared children and beg us to make things better. And we shall embrace them and save them from your despicable party and lift them up and form the world, a better world, the world that you destroyed.

The King is dead. Long live the King. We will clothe the chamber in royal blue and rip your she-devil from her place and tear your party to pieces. And then you shall know the full force of my wrath. You shall never cross me again.

This makes good shakespeare - much more interesting than what was read for english class >.>

It's especially amusing if you imagine Hockey reading it out in Shakespearean style XD

I really liked that paragraph :) the imagery is very good.

hopefully I managed to make sense and not to ramble... it's nearly 7am, so I probably should go to sleep XD

Haha, thanks. I thought it was appropriate, given all the Shakespeare they seemed to like quoting during the week. XD

Well, yes, that too. That's pretty much what I got, Joe reciting this charming tirade while drunk. XD

Yes, that's a good paragraph, that one. I'm rather pleased with it.

Hehe, yeah, you made sense. And yes, you should probably sleep. :P
