Rapier

The knight came riding on a horse, his armour glittering, his rapier blade shimmering in the bright sunlight. A medieval novel or a fairy tale?

                It is only a stage production. The sunlight is only floodlight, and the heroic rapier an aluminium foil. That’s the way a fairytale ends – not in “happily ever after”, but in “fall from grace”.
