Chivalry is DEAD — Short Prose by Jonathan ‘Lim Chin Aun’

“Women are far more dangerous than men. Men want to get away, women want a thing called vengeance.” — Charles Bukowski

I could never really promise you the world, but that is in fact what I seek, and though it would never really be for me, a parting gesture this will never be.

— Jonathan ‘Lim Chin Aun’ —

High on cocaine, shutting out the world, seeking truth through my fingertips, I begin to listen to yet another friend’s advice. He… no… they tell me, as if in a unified stance, to find routine and live my life.

Fashioned only as the dawn breaks for today, “Only Honest,” for a Knight in shinning armor or a common man with every cliche to his whim.

(Image Courtesy of Return of Kings) — But, here I gesticulate one last prose before the morn, I motion… am I a commoner with no real iniquity, or a man borne of no home? Alas, as they say… “My father is dead,” perhaps, then it is true; formally I adieu… I am a bastard, lest said.
