Morning conflict

Longing for my jump start yet resisting, I feel your pull. I will not give in! Iwill grind you into powder! You retaliate by grasping my nostrils with your brutal perfume. I attempt at turning tables and scald your remains. Saturated, you leak into the urn and I am triumphant. Alas I am not. For I drink from thy urn.

Not too bad, but there's too much mixing of old and new style's, or something. Don't know what I'm talking about....

This is adorable. I don't understand the lack of triumph at the end.

I usually take against archaisms, but 'thy urn' works a treat. This is epic yet domestic. Ace.

ah, but you are triumphant! you have the hart's blood! you have slain thy enemy, and eaten his still-beating (or, still brewing, as the case may be) heart! BRAVO!
