Gray robes and stone stand timeless vigil while history lies beyond The last Jabberwocky sits In darkest pit Alone Trapped by boundaries eternal Awaiting time’s final chime to rescind its crime Truth Knowing all Having shared it Pen and paper recorded the story Censorship spoke refrain Highest authority took priority While flames claimed what remain Now there’s only silence And solitude The last Jabberwocky sits In darkest pit Alone Trapped by boundaries eternal Awaiting time’s final chime to rescind its crime While history lies beyond |

Amaryllis: I have several representations of dragons in my classroom. Eventually my fourth graders ask, "Are dragons real?" I often respond... "Only if you believe." For who am I to say one way or the other? Thanks for reading and responding. Peace. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |

Sometimes real and unreal get a bit confused to people. I wrote a novel about dragons. Do I believe in them. No. I do however believe in dragons of the thought process and the inner sanctum of man/woman/whatever/kind. To mimic is a form of praise unless |

Garapan: Thanks for the dragon. Peace. Sir Dark: That you would find this piece to be "cool" says much to my ear. I bow to you and yours. Jerry: Couldn't agree with you more. Thank you for the read and write. "We'll chase them like rats across the tundra." |
