25 January 2013

A roar after a whisper of smoke

Jeweled scales flashing in the starlight

Destroying with a beauty none could see

Pewter talons with droplets of blood

Eyes that paralyze all who gaze into the depths

Filled with a millenniums worth of lust and rage

Tables turn

Knowing that all is gone

It gives out a last brilliant burst of scorching flame

Taking down as many as possible

As the magnificent creature huffs out its last breath

The great dragon lays down its head
