The dragon poet
Inspired by this story's first chapter where a dragon admits reading poems: https://www.sofurry.com/view/1594832
And I'd also love to make a drawing of him writing on a scroll in his cave
He tips his talons on the bottle ink
and then the words flow on the still clean scroll,
words creating poems that will make you think
of journeys, magic, and a world so old.
He stands up all day to guard the scrolls' pile,
resting on the top of his huge, dear hoard,
but when a knight comes in, there is no fight:
he'll give them one tale, making a small roar.
The dragon poet is a gentle soul;
his goal is to show you his kind is not
like all those bad ones so obsessed with gold.
He shall fight you with smart figures of speech;
his mind is the best weapon that he's got,
'cause to a burned body, there's nothing to teach.
