Too Clever

I killed a man in cold blood. I'll be the first to admit it wasn't the best idea I've ever had and I really shouldn't have done it in that crowded market square, but he had slighted my honour and a man never lives long after that, to be sure.

The police caught me and found me guilty and threw me in a cell. They told me, as I was a gentleman, I was allowed to pick the manner of my execution and I could even have the night to think about it.

The sun is just peeking over the horizon and I can hear men coming for me. The joke is on them, though, because I have chosen 'old age'.
