My Dragon, The Tetralogy: Part 1 – My Dragon
Picture: Ivor Steven

by Ivor Steven
 
A monstrous Dragon, breathing fire
Did arise from the gurgling mire
Dark gangrenous green, from head to tail
Claws blackened, sharp as nails
Purple secretions, from his scaly chest
A spear harpooned, a grizzly mess
Nostrils ablaze, bloodied red
Eyes seeping yellow maggot heads
My Dragon’s crying, and nearly dead
