The Mugging

"Lemme tell you a story. It was like something out of a dream."

I was walkin down the street and I saw a girl

'Bout to get mugged, the thugs' plan was about to unfurl

I crossed the road to stop

Their criminality, despite not being a cop

Three of them at first, then there were eight

Seemed to me I seal'd my fate.

The girl backed to the wall, prepared to run

The thugs about to have their fun

With me. Little did they know

That I was the luckiest kid in the block, bro

Attacks came from all direction

My foot made a solid connection

To the face of one dude, then to another

Right in the solarplex, swear on my mother

They backed off, they all drew knives

Oh no, I thought, how can I contrive

A weapon to challenge their offense

Shotgun dropped from above, 'long with a box-- it's contents

A note. "good luck!" simply

Then I saw the gun was empty.

I had but one choice, to swing away!

What else could i do, okay?

Beat down four, two remain

One pointed a gun. It started to rain

And the girl hit him in the back with a cane

From an old man who was walking by

And I was face to face with the last guy.

He was twice my size! He charged me too

But I stopped him with an elbow, thrown straight and true

To his chin. The behemoth collapsed

In front of me and the girl. At last

The mugging was averted, for her

It was awesome for both of us, I concur!

To put the cherry on top, I was on a dare:

I did this all in my underwear.

I just know that poems generally rhyme so I had no idea where this was going, except that it had to end with the last line. Anyways, here it is, a poem written in 20 minutes on my iPhone!
