"Bloodbath"

Eggheads don't make football players 

   (they're so much better at math)

Keep them in your prayers

   (sparing them the bloodbath).

"Caught"

If the scene caught on CCTV

is "spine-tingling" 

Best to scroll on by

   (and go see Barnum and Ringling).

"Burnout"

If it's always "whilst we're there"

Pretty soon it's "engine out!"

Better that than wing and prayer

   (and unexpected burnout).

"Crazy"

If no uncovered facts 

Confirm crazy stories 

Maybe Truth attacks

The inflammatories.

"Damn"

The problem with Seraphim Falls

Is not that it's a bad movie

It's just that casting Liam Neeson

You better have a damn good reason.

"Fit"

That's how the story was writ

Oh, so long ago

The fact that it doesn't fit

The truth is all for show.

"Tavern"

When a horse is whickering

At the start of a Western

You can assume they must be bickering

Down at the tavern.

"Threat"

To end up as a meme on the internet

Is a most unwelcome fate

But I wouldn't take it as a threat

   (when much worse outcomes await).

"Sword"

When you must remove the dashboard

To get to the pyro fuse

You might just fall on your sword

   (or decide to sing Blues).
