Cruel Imagination
=or=
On Not Being A Dragon

017.jpg (420372 bytes)       It's painful to imagine now
      just what I'd like to be,
      for I see clearly anyhow
      the lock; it has no key.

      No locksmith can unfasten it
      with hammer, file or blade.
      The tool required for the job,
      I fear will ne'er be made

      Some people with a wond'rous gift
      can show me yonder side,
      but sadly I shall never be
      a Dragon, bona fide

      So if you mighty beasts of lore
      would like a human meal,
      I offer up my humble self
      to sate your hungry creel.

      Perhaps this way a part of me
      may have a voice to sing
      its praises to you noble race,
      aloft on Dragon wing...

 ~Jonathan Martin
