The Dragon

by FireFly - Libra

Get off the beaten path-
If the clouds beneath your feet-
Begin to crack you just might fall thru-

Fire breathing dragon-
Virgin going to commit suicide-
Inside his cave-
If you steal her, you know-
He won’t obey you anymore-

The atom bomb dropped twice-
Explosion, a fusion of fire and madness-
All of history and the future-
Belong to this dragon’s insatiable desires-

Get off the beaten path-
The clouds going to crack-
You’ll fall thru and become droplets of rain-
You’ll be spreading yourself thin-

Desire spreads its scaly wings-
Are you looking out for yourself?
Confusion opens the bomb bay doors-
Are you looking out for who’s best?
Frustration fired the gun, lost loved ones-
Do you see how it ends-

If you want to save your world-
Get it off your back first-
And don’t let the dragon-
Fire back so soon-
