There is no place
     that I can go.

There is no road
     for me to travel.

I blaze my path
     from nothingness.

I am a dragon at heart.

My future lies
     ahead of me.

My past, so heavy
     I cannot fly.

The friends I have
     help bear the weight.

I am a dragon at heart.

Fear does not elude me
     whenever trouble strikes.

Despite my desperation,
     I stand brave and proud.

I am a dragon at heart.

Volcanic ruler, the Everflame dragon

Ode to Oatmeal

Your taste is bland You look like snot You're easy to cook When most food is not Chock full of nutrients But easy on one's tummy New ingredients added And your taste isn't crummy A bit of milk for Creamy taste A dash of sugar for taste buds embraced A slice of butter from Country Crock A bit of fruit to make it rock A glorious product Of a cereal grain Oatmeal is perfect In day, night, or rain

Dragons

Dragons. Some say they never were, And were birthed from imagination. The same say that fantasy Is the realm of children and the insane. To believe in the magical, the mythical, And the fantastic Is to be as a child or a madman. I am neither and I believe in dragons. The majestic Lords of skie Born of fire. In an averie of flames The eggs lie Warmed by mothers breath. Emerging weak and hungry, Parchment wings Unfurl for the first time. Infant sings For mothers attention. Noble, proud and powerful Lords of the skie Reach the very stars with A thermal sigh And one thunderous wingbeat. Upon the winds they soar Swooping,

Dragons

Where did they come from? Where did they go? Questions to which answers, No one seems to know. Beautiful and gentle, As much as a flower. They soon disappeared, Due to man's lust for power. Only those now As rare as sages. Can truely find a dragon In these modern ages. Once these creatures Where the protectors of us all. Sheltering great civilizations Until they disappeared, leaving them to fall. Everyone I know Is a dragon you see. I look out for you, You look out for me. Dragons will be with us Through the reaches of time. In fact there's one sitting here, Teaching me this rhyme.

Be Careful What You Read

Be Careful What You Read By Tanorath-Drgn -- //Day 0 It was one of the biggest bookstores in the city. In fact, it was the biggest. Sadly, it was also one of the casualties of the digital revolution. The owner had been on television the day before lamenting the declining sales and the advent of the ebook. It was partially their own fault, of course, since they refused to diversify, but that really wasn’t the biggest issue here. I had turned up to buy as many interesting books as I could. I had grown up amongst the tall bookshelves and I wasn’t about to let it go without a fight! Wandering aimlessly from shelf to shelf, I found

A spa of the extraordinary

“Alright, sir. Just relax your stiff muscles and close your eyes.” Doran sighed, still irritated from… well, from everything. Things hadn’t really been going his way for the past few weeks and eventually his bad temper began to stock up inside him and at some point the grumpiness just didn’t go away any more. “Relax those shoulders. Yes, like that. Just let loose all that frustration.” Somehow the last few weeks, maybe months even, had been bleak and miserable. Maybe it was the ever-present lack of warmth and colour. Winter was on the doorstep, most trees had lost all of their leaves and a cold win

The dracophile

I spent a huge amount of time reading fantastic books where great, magnificent creatures soar up into the blue sky, scaled, big, beautiful. My mind felt deep into those stories and suddenly I was with them, they were greeting me, they were inviting me, I accepted their proposal, and I flew with them. Some are gentle, some are cruel, some help people, some live lonely; so much about them waited to be discovered, that slowly and inexorabily, I fell in love with their race. When I then came back to what I call home, I went out and wandered long, in search of some traces, in search of them. I desired to see with my real eyes their majestic wings

This poem is a kind of precursor to a song by the same title that I want to write. It's been through several iterations, and the refrain is rather sparse, but meh.
