The Parting

PHOTO PROMPT Copyright-Lura Helms.

There came a parting of the ways.
The Keeper of the Flame and The Severance Hand,
long time friends in the battle for righteousness,
disagreed on the likely outcome to the choice of right and not-right.
Keeper insisted on right. Severance Hand insisted on might.
Each took their choice and slunk into the future alone.

Happily Nobody came to the parting of the ways
and took the not-right path without hesitation.
Fool that he pretends to be, he strode forward with his hand in his pocket,
where lay the tool of destruction.
Any minute now, Severance Hand would come into view.
