How The One Defeats The Other

It’s the best kind because it’s TV advice.
The Other seeks something of value
and kills, using his martial arts expertise,
everyone standing in his way to find it.
The single survivor of a battle with The Other,
coincidentally, is a friend of The One.
Before The One goes into battle with The Other,
the surviving friend offers this timely advice:
Watch his eyes, he blinks before he strikes.
This is all The One needs to know.
Battling The Other, then, The One sees him blink,
so shoots and kills him in the nick of time.
The One will always triumph over The Other,
surviving because of some convenient advice,
TV advice, of which there is none better. And
having a gun helps when fighting a martial artist.
