Some say Pen is stronger than Sword,
Some say she writes awry.
From what I've read about the Bored,
I think that they would favor Sword.
But if they scuffle by-and-by,
I've learned enough of smarts and wit,
To know that Pen would lose. But why?
Pen would forfeit,
Her ink would dry.
The rhyme scheme and structure used here were largely inspired by Robert Frost's famous poem "Fire and Ice," which I highly suggest anyone who enjoyed this check out.
