Oh, Poor Dragon Darling - A Sanders Sides FanPoem

No one defends you

Dragon

Besides a lonesome glare

Dragon

Wings so grand

The colour of Autumn red

Of Mars and fire not so burning hot

The kind of fire which passion is

But not the kind that burns those close to it

Joy blooms through your eyes, breath and lungs

But then Serpent speaks

And it dies 

Not even a brother

To protect you

They say ‘ego’

When in truth, it’s Ego 

Is it dishonesty or ignorance?

What’s the difference?

No Corvid to speak wisdom

To guard your mind

No Preacher to speak guidance

Because they themself are lost 

Flower speaks praise to a bird

But ignores you

And when Serpent gets a consequence 

Delivered through you

The one you protect screeches surprise

and disapproval at you 

Oh

You realize

Oh.

Oh.

Oh. 

Those guarded by others

Supported by friends

Will never be

You 

You make effort with serpents

And one makes effort with you

But those who you need effort from

Laugh heartily in your face

Dragon 

Darling dragon

Poor darling dragon

Hurt awaits
