Poem I wrote for a dragon contest
Above the sky, beneath the sea
Beyond the dreams of you and me
Far more than any man can see
The dragon lies in wait

Her polished scales gently flow -
Sprayed red on deep dark indigo -
They burn with heat no man can know
The dragon lies in wait

Her eyes contain the burning bright
That lights up every day and night
Yet no man sees what gives him sight
The dragon lies in wait

With every shudder in her sleep
With every harsh stamp of her feet
Earth heaves, and man-made structures leap
The dragon lies in wait

To molten rock of worlds today
The sun and moon and each one's ray
The quake to which all things give way
To you the dragon gives her fate
