A dragon leans against a brick wall, tapping his feet Sounding like an entire Jazz Band Wanting a better world...for the world Taking the last highway for the cross Compassion flows forth like submittal Art pained energetically by a Buddhist Sustained by a wild affectionate glance I am still burning from this energy, Oh the power of fire! Lucid blood-shot eyes guarding mythology Can you see unicorns with their golden hoofs? Dragons can, you know! Together they lead the sun out to smile. An embodiment of elevated thought. Raining in cats and dogs Joining hands forming a one-man band. Resurrecting the outer, transient and perishable world Inwardly Fused with sensual meaning and truth Counting them one by one, placing them in rows Not exactly in line, by reason of tradition. And as for the dragon, he's working in a soup kitchen Doing just what he came to do Still tapping his feet, but to his delight, to a much different tune. This song was inspired after reading ol fokelores of how dragons were considered kind and caring amoung the ancients...this dragon is particularly a sacred one.....hope you enjoy Thank you for reading By Lee J. 2003 |
