Why wasn't Leeper there?

Once upon a time

There was a knight

He was a sad excuse

Since he couldn't fight

He was invited to attend a wonderful ball

The grandest of his time

Yet he didn't expect the unexpected brawl

That was to come that very night

The beast spat flames

And shook the ground

"This is not a game,"

He said as he looked around

Leeper started to run

But the beast just laughed

"Why don't we have some fun?"

He said as he revealed the family he had stolen

Leeper grew very enraged

The beast just smirked

As he knew he'd get what he craved

...but maybe more than he bargained for.

So Leeper took on the dragon

His sword broke in half

So he just started smacking him

Finally the dragon was beaten

"That's wasn't so tough,"

Leeper said with a smile

As he rescued his stuff

His family, I mean...

But it was way too late to go to the ball

That didn't faze him

He had had an interesting brawl

And now he needed sleep.

To the Pringles Mobile!
