Poetry
“A Dragon”
Sep 23, 2020
--
Who will slay me?
My design is glossed and ancient, scaled to fit your mind.
With wings that span eons to sweep
O’er nations and emperors,
Who will slay me?
Eyes unblinking like Janus and teeth placed in
Fearful symmetry.
Who will slay me?
I burn stars to ash and
Devour them.
Who can slay me?
