the outcome

it's a suit
made
of lead,
filled
with water.

it's a protective coat,
manufactured
by practice.

there are holes
in the chest
proven in years
by the outcome
of scars.

this suit
doesn't float
but it protects
against
rips in the skin.

the next opponant
forgets the water,
and you can't even remember
to sharpen your blade.
