The Blade

A sword sharp as night
As quick as the light
It shines in the dark
The clang of metal makes your fingers disembark
It falls with a clatter
The steel begins to shatter
You pick it up
And look at it closeup
A single crack
And with just a wack
The blade could snap
With just a single tap
You take it for a repair
But to your despair
It cannot be mended
So you buy a new one
